Approaching Literature: Reading + Thinking + Writing (Third Edition)
by Peter Schakel Jack RidlThe central aim of this book is to foster habits and skills of critical thinking. The third edition makes the book even more inclusive and accessible than the first and second editions. A unique feature of this book is its appendix on reading critical essays, which provides practical instruction on how to approach and read the academic essay, a genre that in itself is unfamiliar to many students, and which students may be asked to use as sources in their own writing.

Aprender a vivir: Filosofía para mentes jóvenes
by Luc FerryPensado para jóvenes y adultos que quieren saber qué es la filosofía y cómo puede esta ayudarnos a vivir mejor y a ser más libres. Voy a contarte la historia de la filosofía. No toda, por supuesto, pero sí sus cinco grandes momentos. Para cada una de estas etapas, te ofreceré como ejemplo una o dos formas de ver el mundo, de modo que puedas empezar a leer por ti mismo, si te apetece, a alguno de sus pensadores. También quiero hacerte una promesa: voy a exponerte todas estas ideas de forma muy clara, sin jerga, yendo a lo esencial, a lo más apasionante que hay en ellas. Si me sigues, acabarás sabiendo de verdad qué es la filosofía y por qué resulta irremplazable a la hora de aclararnos los múltiples interrogantes que se plantean en torno a cómo podemos o debemos vivir nuestras vidas. Aprender a vivir, a dejar de temer los diversos rostros de la muerte o, simplemente, aprender a superar la banalidad de la vida cotidiana, las preocupaciones y el tiempo que pasa, este fue el primer objetivo de las escuelas de la Antigüedad griega. Merece la pena escuchar su mensaje, porque las filosofías del pasado nos siguen hablando.
