In order to read the 100 'Greatest Books' we should select a number of key questions we want to answer by reading these books in stead of just reading them as a To Do list of 100 items. The Problems of Philosophy (1912) is one of Bertrand Russell's attempts to create a brief and accessible guide to the problems of philosophy. The key questions mentioned below are these problem's. My suggestion is to take these questions, but rephrase them into in contemporary relevant questions. Please post your inputs.

1 PREFACE
2 APPEARANCE AND REALITY
3 THE EXISTENCE OF MATTER
