Philosophical Problems : An Annotated Anthology Paperback
by Ann Baker, Laurence BonJour
Paperback
Description
Created by one of the discipline's foremost scholars in collaboration with a distinguished teacher, this groundbreaking new introductory anthology provides a wealth of pedagogy to help students read, analyze, and argue about philosophical thought.
A much-awaited new contribution to the field, this anthology of classic and contemporary philosophical selections supplements readings with a set of guidelines for developing distinctively philosophical habits of mind.
Featuring a pedagogy unlike any other text of its kind, it provides a "roadmap" for thinking philosophically, outlined and reinforced throughout its introductory essay, chapter introductions, reading annotations, discussion questions, argument analysis sections, and on writing about philosophy. The text juxtaposes traditional texts with more recent ones to help students see how philosophers throughout the ages have engaged in an ongoing debate on universal questions and how the philosophies of yesterday are just as relevant and meaningful to our existence today. To insure that students understand the readings, the text provides abundant apparatus to guide students through the material and to help them formulate their own opinions and ideas.
Students come to class prepared to engage in discussion instead of needing a lecture just to understand the issues.
