Inhaltsangabe

This is a flexible and affordable collection of fifty of the most important classic and contemporary primary source readings in philosophy. Perfect for introductory or advanced students, the readings are organized topically and cover all the main disciplines of Western Philosophy: What is Philosophy?, Philosophy of Religion, Theories of knowledge, Philosophy of Mind, Free Will and Determinism, Ethics, and Political and Social Philosophy. Longer readings are carefully edited to preserve the central, self-contained argument so students focus on the core reasoning and conclusions. A wide selection of new readings at an attractive price makes this anthology the most versatile and affordable introduction to philosophy text on the market.
