Philosophy

Published in 1967. Revised edition. In this Introduction to Philosophical Analysis, Professor Hospers gives a systematic consideration of all the major problems and issues of philosophy. The student is encouraged to reason out problems for him/herself by being given full background and step-by-step arguments, and is thus given a feeling for philosophical reasoning rather than a summary of philosophical positions. Throughout the text, dialogues present opposing views on different philosophical problems. The author provides nearly two hundred questions at the ends of chapters to develop the students' ability to think analytically, and adds an extensive reading list from a balanced selection of outside authorities.
