For introductory courses in philosophy. Using accessible content that is unintimidating yet intellectually engaging, Discovering Philosophy uses primarily secondary sources such as summaries, explanations, and discussions of major arguments to relate philosophical issues to the readers' own experiences. Thomas I. White's first goal in writing this book was to produce a text that students would actually read. The style, tone, and content make the text easy-to-read, unintimidating, and intellectually engaging. Central to this book is the activity of argumentation and thorough consideration of the intricacies of the arguments we explore. In the same spirit of approachability, he includes a fair amount of material from other disciplines. One of the most difficult aspects of teaching introductory philosophy is students' limited prior exposure to it. Students usually know something about the natural and social sciences, however, so they should feel more comfortable being introduced to philosophical topics through these disciplines More than anything, White wanted to write a book that helps students become adept and comfortable with doing philosophy-and doing it at an intellectually respectable level.
