About the Book

Introducing Philosophy: A Text with Integrated Readings, Twelfth Edition, is an exciting, accessible, and thorough introduction to the core questions of philosophy and the many ways in which they are, and have been, answered. The authors combine substantial selections from significant works in the history of philosophy with excerpts from current philosophy, clarifying the readings and providing context with their own detailed commentary and explanation. Spanning 2,500 years, the selections range from the oldest known fragments to cutting-edge contemporary essays. Organized topically, the chapters present alternative perspectives--including analytic, continental, feminist, and non-Western viewpoints--alongside the historical works of major Western philosophers.

Review :

"Solomon's writing style is superlative. The updates by Higgins and Martin are also exemplary. I believe that this is among the best books in the field, which is why I have kept it for almost 15 years." --Paul Wilson, Texas State University


"This is among the best texts out there. Its strengths are in the wonderful breadth of primary-source excerpts. It is the only introductory text I have found that shows students the connection between philosophy and awe, wonder, yearning, pain, hope. The authors' writing is heartfelt in this way and this in itself is a big step toward making the content relevant to students."--Ellen Stansell, Austin Community College


"This text is thorough and impressive because of the significant quotations and excerpts from primary-source material. The excerpts are well selected, well presented, and well interpreted. In addition, the ancillaries for this textbook are very, very good."--Nancy Shaffer, California University of Pennsylvania
