To this end, a number of engaging features and inserts are provided:Original Sources: Numerous primary readings are included, introducing students directly to the philosophical work of diverse thinkers ranging from Plato to Martin Luther King Jr. Each reading is thoughtfully excerpted and followed by reflective questions.Philosopher Profiles: Abstract ideas are connected to the lives of real historical figures through fascinating biographical profiles.
