Introduction to Philosophy by Perry

Introduction to Philosophy by Perry

Introduce your students to philosophy with the most widely used, trusted, and comprehensive topically organized collection of classical and contemporary readings available.Easy to use for both students and instructors, Introduction to Philosophy: Classical and Contemporary Readings incorporates boldfaced key terms (listed after each reading and defined in the glossary), a "Logical Toolkit," a guide to writing philosophy papers, and study questions after each reading selection. The eighth edition features nine new selections that broaden the book's scope to include work by non-Western philosophers and contemporary women philosophers.

"Introduction to Philosophy provides instructors with unparalleled latitude in designing their coursesIt includes important readings by female philosophers, something that is sadly lacking in most other introductory texts."--Aleksandar Pjevalica, The University of Texas at El Paso "This is the best text on the market for teaching an Introduction to Philosophy course. I like that one could teach a course that emphasized the history of philosophy, or, alternatively, a course that is organized around a taxonomy of philosophical problems. Few good texts are flexible in this way."--Jeremy Kirby, Albion College "Introduction to Philosophy has all of the benefits of larger texts without the unnecessary weight or cost. It tells a story of philosophy that focuses on contemporary debates while also describing their historical roots. I can see the enthusiasm that the authors have for making the material relevant to today's students."--Stephen Russell Orr, Solano Community College
