Specialized area of inquiry distinguished by its experts, language, method, content
Traditionally, Western philosophy is divided into four main branches viz; epistemology, metaphysics, logic and axiology.
Epistemology is the theory of knowledge; it inquires into the nature, validity, criteria, and sources of knowledge.
Metaphysics deals with speculative questions in such areas as; cosmology, ontology, theodicy, rational psychology
Logic focuses on rules, principles of reasoning by which we distinguish good from bad reasoning
Axiology is the philosophical study of values, for example artistic and ethical values. Ethics and Aesthetics are sub-branches of Axiology.
