Living Philosophy: A Historical Introduction to Philosophical Ideas
by Lewis VaughnThis second edition of Living Philosophy guides students in a survey of the historical march of philosophical ideas, encouraging an appreciation of the significance of these ideas in Western and Eastern thought. Living Philosophy provides this guidance in five fundamental ways: it tells a coherent story of philosophical thought from the pre-Socratics to the present; it provides the cultural and intellectual background for this story; it explains why the major issues and arguments are important and relevant today; it includes substantial, well-chosen excerpts from the philosophers' works; and it presents all these elements in a way that engages and stimulates student interest and understanding. Living Philosophy includes solid coverage of critical-thinking skills and argument basics as well as practice in reading philosophical works. Students learn how to do philosophy--to think and write philosophically--when they get encouragement and practice in analyzing and critiquing their own views as well as those philosophers they study. To this end, Living Philosophy emphasizes philosophical writing, reinforced with step-by-step coaching in how to write argumentative essays on philosophical topics and supported by multiple opportunities to hone basic skills. Living Philosophy further engages today's learners with abundant illustrations and graphics; marginal glosses, questions, and quotations; profiles of a diverse array of philosophers; and ample representation of non-Western and nontraditional sources and voices.
