Philosophy for Everyone 2nd Edition

Enjoyed the book. I would assume relatively simple as intro to philosophy types of books go. Most every chapter was easily readable in an hour. Left me wanting to learn more on several areas. The only chapter that did not click with me was the Philosophy of Obeying the government. Just felt like it could have been more clearly written. But a great intro book.

Meh, this reminds me of Grout, the book I had to study in music school where they dissected Mozart pieces. Taking apart the thought process on this level just seems like a waste of time to me. There are just so many factors involved in being human how can you leave out feelings?Mozart didn't choose chord progressions on purpose, he simply felt the next note. Simple.

Great book!

Soy profesora de filosofía de la educación. Este libro me ayuda a hacer accesible los temas a mis estudiantes. Yo no soy filósofa, me gusta la filosofía y por eso me invitan a dar esta clase; así que me ayuda tener materiales distintos, este libro es uno de ellos. Me ayuda mucho!

This book is for everyone but it doesnt dumb down philosophy as I feared it might. It's a challenging and informative introduction to philosophy and I enjoyed it immensely. The book is an accompaniment to an online course though it is a stand alone volume (The course refers to the book but the book doesnt reference the course.)Of course Im not infinitely wiser having read it but it has pointed me in a certain direction.

Was what I wanted .

Was doing the accompanying philosophy course. So excellent

good easy to read intro
