Incorporating the insights of new coeditor Lewis Vaughn, Classics
of Philosophy, Third Edition, is the most comprehensive anthology
of writings in Western philosophy in print. Spanning 2,500 years of
thought, it is ideal for introduction to philosophy and history of
philosophy courses. It features more than seventy selections by
forty philosophers--along with fragments from the
Pre-Socratics--offering students and instructors an extensive and
economical collection of the major works of the Western tradition.
This volume contains the most important writings from Thales to
Rawls; twenty of these are complete works, while the others are
judiciously abridged so that little of value to the student is
lost. A lucid introduction, including a brief biographical sketch,
accompanies each of the featured philosophers.
NEW TO THE THIRD EDITION:
* Selections from philosophers who were not included in the
previous edition--Maimonides (Guide for the Perplexed) and
Schopenhauer (The World as Will and Representation)--along with
Kant's Critique of Pure Reason
* Expanded readings: Aristotle's Posterior Analytics, On the Soul,
Metaphysics, and Nicomachean Ethics; Berkeley's Of the Principles
of Human Knowledge; and Hume's Treatise on Human Nature
* Review questions for each chapter and illustrated portraits of
many philosophers
* A Companion Website at www.oup.com/us/pojman featuring resources
for students (self-quizzes, flash cards, chapter review questions,
a timeline, and helpful web links) and instructors (brief reading
summaries, essay questions, test questions, and PowerPoint-based
lecture slides)
Classics of Philosophy, Third Edition, provides students with an
extensive view of the major stages of growth in Western
philosophy--including its birth with the Pre-Socratics and its
contemporary developments--in an accessible format and at an
affordable price.
