New and Old World Philosophy Introductory Readings

New and Old World Philosophy shows how the divergent voices of American thought have drawn upon, extended, and challenged the Western European philosophical tradition. Selections from American pragmatists C.S. Peirce, William James, John Dewey, and Jane Addams begin each chapter and are followed by writings of both "Old World" philosophers such as Plato and Descartes and "New World" thinkers such as Anzaldua, Du Bois, Santayana, and Warhol. Featuring short passages from primary sources and concise commentary, the text includes chapters on the nature of philosophy, reality, knowledge, morality, art, religion, and society. Readers are encouraged to join the dialogue and develop as critical thinkers.Luizzi, Vincent is the author of 'New and Old World Philosophy Introductory Readings' with ISBN 9780130157683 and ISBN 0130157686.
