Philosophical Introductions: Introductory Readings in Philosophy

Through an engaging collection of readings and articles, Philosophical Introductions: Introductory Readings in Philosophy introduces students to a variety of areas within the discipline. The text features examples and content students can easily relate to, as well as a section dedicated to humor.

The anthology features 14 readings that cover a range of topics, including the concepts of evil, forgiveness and apology, free will and determinism, and the justification of human rights. Students read selections concerning the virtue of character, utilitarianism, Kantianism, humor, the concepts of race as applied to social culture, and more.

The second edition contains a new chapter written by the editor that explores different perspectives on the problem of evil in the context of a Christian God that is canonically considered all-good, all-powerful, and all-knowing.

Designed to provide students with thought-provoking reading experiences, Philosophical Introductions is an ideal foundational resource for courses in philosophy.
