When "Journeys Through Philosophy" first appeared in 1977, it quickly established a reputation as one of the most complete and versatile introductory philosophy textbooks for the beginning student. Combining carefully chosen selections from the original works of many eminent philosophers with invaluable commentaries designed to illuminate the ideas of these great minds, and an extensive section on how one should read philosophy, the editors have answered the instructional needs of students and teachers alike. This revised edition contains selections by Denis Diderot, Kierkegaard, Irving Kristol, Paul Kurtz, George Moore, William Paley, Jean-Paul Sarte, and John Wisdom, in addition to many of the excerpts from classical and contemporary thinkers found in the earlier edition. The highly acclaimed section on how to read philosophy is complemented by the addition of new introductions.
Nicholas Capaldi, PhD (Baton Rouge, LA), holds the Legendre-Soule Distinguished Scholar Chair in Business Ethics at Loyola University of New Orleans. He is the author or editor of many books including The Art of Deception (with Miles Smit); Immigration: Debating the Issues; and John Stuart Mill: A Biography.
