  • "Teaching an introductory philosophy course is one of the most difficult tasks a philosophy instructor faces. Because philosophy isn't usually taught in secondary schools, most entering college students have no idea what philosophy is or why they should be studying it. Any notions they do have about philosophy generally have little to do with the practice of professional philosophers. To help students understand the nature and purpose of philosophical inquiry, Doing Philosophy: An Introduction through Thought Experiments explains how philosophical problems arise and why searching for solutions is important."
  • ""The book traces the historical development of philosophical thinking on a number of central problems and shows how philosophical theories have evolved in response to criticism."--p.4 of cover."
