One way of describing philosophy is that it is an attempt to construct a very general account of the kinds of things there are in the universe and how they fit together.
One thing that differs today in philosophy is the presumption of what we know best. In an earlier age, the presumption of our best understanding was not the physical cosmos.
Today, the presumption of what we know best is the physical cosmos, because we have robust laws of physical matters.
Philosophy concerns: clarification, argumentation, distinction, evaluating overall theories for their coherence, philosophical reflection.
The kinds of questions that would be left over even after a complete scientific account.
