Zusammenfassung:"This text is to complement introductory-level philosophy courses. It is especially suited for writing-intensive courses, in which students are asked to read primary-source materials and respond critically by putting forth and defending a philosophical thesis through thoughtful argumentation. Thus, this book is meant to complement introductory-level philosophy courses, where the focus in such courses is on learning how to do philosophy as much as it is on learning what certain philosophers think about certain issues. As it aims to teach students how to read, evaluate, and write philosophy, the book begins analytically by giving students the tools and skills to recognize, break down, and analyze arguments before formally responding to them in writing. It ends synthetically by enabling students to advance and defend a philosophical position of their own in a synthetic critical essay."--Page viii.
