About this product
Product Information
The anthology Ten Philosophies That Shook the World: An Economical Introduction to Philosophy allows some of the greatest philosophers, ancient and modern, to speak for themselves and directly to students through their own writings. Based on John Rawls's thesis that an appreciation of a philosopher requires that the text must be respected, these passages are largely unedited, giving students deeper exposure to the ideas and perspectives of such canonical figures as Plato, Aristotle, and Descartes. Introductory passages and prefaces written by the authors enhance understanding of the original intent of each philosopher. The book begins with two brief selections that provide insight into the value of philosophical ideas, and address how best to read and understand the readings. That material that follows introduces students to nine of the greatest philosophers, beginning with Plato, who represents both his own views and those of Socrates, and ending with John Stuart Mill, and his seminal On Liberty. The organization of the book is chronological, allowing students to embark on a journey of philosophical time travel accompanied by the greats including Hobbes, Locke, Hume, and Marx and Engels. Of special note is the inclusion of an excerpt from Adam Smith's An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. Philosophers have come to recognize Smith's importance not just as an economist, but as a bridge between John Locke on one hand, and Karl Marx and John Stuart Mill on the other, and the influence of his philosophy on society at large is nowadays indisputable. Although Smith is rarely included in introductory philosophy anthologies, many instructors will find this selection to be a welcome addition to their courses. Clear and concise, Ten Philosophies that Shook the World, is an excellent reader for introductory philosophy classes, or courses on ancient and modern philosophy. The material is sufficient for a one semester course, and instructors can add a missing favorite while still keeping the cost of course materials very reasonable.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
