“Provides a wonderful and unique introduction to philosophy—not just toits central questions and the creative answers (some classic and enduring,some cutting-edge) that philosophers have given, but also to the shared techniques, style, and wonderment that makes philosophy so, well, engaging.The book can clearly be used on its own, or along with a selection of thephilosophical texts it discusses. Particularly useful in this regard are thestudy questions and further reading suggestions that come at the end of eachchapter. I’m looking forward to using Engaging Philosophy the next time Iteach Introduction to Philosophy.” —Joseph G. Moore, Amherst College

“. . . [includes] wonderfully lucid discussions of good and bad reasoning,‘the Greatest Conceivable Being’, moral relativism and objectivism, consciousness and the mind, free will, and personal identity. Students, or anyreaders wanting a stimulating introduction to the field, will see these issues spring to life underProfessor Green’s able tutelage, and they will learn by example the intellectual virtues of clarity,rigor, and conceptual discernment. Green shows what it is to be alive to philosophical issues, andhe shows why—as he memorably puts it—philosophy never sleeps. A brilliant introduction.”

—Garry L. Hagberg, James H. Ottaway Professor of Philosophy and Aesthetics, Bard College

“. . . [C]lear as a bell and extremely well done. I can imagine many instructors using this for introductions to philosophy.” —Michael Morgan, Indiana University

JOEL J. KUPPERMANSix Myths about the Good LifeThinking about What Has Value

2006 $9.95 paper ISBN 978-0-87220-782-0 exam price: free168 pp. $32.95 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-783-7

“This is the best introduction to philosophical accounts of the good life available. An excellent choice for any student of philosophy, this originaland revealing study will inform, stimulate, and challenge even the most sophisticated reader. Kupperman combines the distinctive care, precisionand analytic power of philosophy with the best insights of contemporarypsychology and a sophisticated, sensitive, and wise appreciation of theIndian, Chinese, and Western philosophical traditions. The result is a modern classic.” —Phillip J. Ivanhoe, Boston University

“Joel Kupperman’s little book on the good life is an impressively subtleintroduction to this ancient subject, which also fulfills its promise of engaginga general reader. . . . There are two features that particularly distinguish thebook: The first is Kupperman’s inclusion of eastern philosophy, whichbreathes new life into a very old subject. . . . The second distinguishing feature of the book isKupperman’s inclusion of empirical studies to explore his chosen myths. . . . It would be suitablefor undergraduate teaching and, with supplementation, could form the basis of a graduatecourse.” —Samantha Vice, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

“Six Myths is a consistently clear and engaging book, in the same league as Bertrand Russell’s classic work, The Conquest of Happiness. . . . The author’s grasp of Eastern thought and the ‘positive psychology’ movement makes the book useful to a very wide audience.”

—Charles Guignon, University of South Florida

“A genuine understanding of Hume’s extraordinarily rich, important, and influential moral philosophy requires familiarity with all of his writings on vice and virtue, the passions, the will,and even judgments of beauty—and that means familiarity not only with large portions of ATreatise of Human Nature, but also with An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals and many ofhis essays as well. This volume is the one truly comprehensive collection of Hume’s work on allof these topics. Geoffrey Sayre-McCord, a leading moral philosopher and Hume scholar, hasdone a meticulous job of editing the texts and has provided an extensive Introduction that is atonce accessible, accurate, and philosophically engaging, revealing the deep structure of Hume’smoral philosophy.” —Don Garrett, New York University

ANDRÉ KUKLA & JOEL WALMSLEYMindA Historical and Philosophical Introduction to the Major Theories

2006 $9.95 paper ISBN 978-0-87220-832-2 exam price: free208 pp. $32.95 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-833-9

A historical overview and evaluation of the major theories of mind, Mindranges widely in its examination of such fundamentals as introspectionism,psychoanalysis, behaviorism, and the varieties of contemporary cognitive science.

“Kukla and Walmsley state in their preface that they intend this volume as‘an introduction to the science of psychology for the nonspecialist who isn’tafraid to do a little thinking.’ This goal is admirably achieved. The authorspresent viewpoints about the mind held in the various schools of psychological thought. The summary of each major perspective focuses onthe central tenets of each model as they relate to the discipline as a whole. . . .[T]he authors’ presentation of these sometimes-thorny, often-difficult constructs is clear. . . . This book offers not only a history of the most important contributions of the field but also an understanding of where psychology is at present.The conclusion is simple but profound. After more than a century of exploration, ‘the mind isstill a mystery.’ Summing up: Highly recommended.” —D. M. Chirico, CHOICE

“Mind is an engaging, beautifully written and informative little book covering a vast array of theories and movements in psychology over the past 150 years. The authors have a clear idea ofwhat is most important about each development and present even the most technical issues andreasoning in ways that are accessible to a wide audience. From start to finish, one feels one is inthe presence of exceptional teachers who have mastered the material and know how to make itcome alive for students. The book combines philosophical insights with historical informationabout past thinkers and developments in a seamless and focused way.”

—Charles Guignon, Department of Philosophy, University of South Florida

“This book is an astonishingly well-written introduction to the major developments in the studyof mind in a hundred years of scientific psychology. . . . Intellectually liberating, thoughtful, and judicious. . . .” —John M. Kennedy, FRSC, Department of Life Sciences, University of Toronto

ANDRÉ KUKLA is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toronto,where he is also a member of the graduate faculty of the Department of Philosophy.

RICHARD JEFFREYFormal LogicIts Scope and Limits, 4th EditionEdited, with a New Supplement, by John P. Burgess

2006 $34.50 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-813-1 exam price: $5.00192 pp. prof. price: $20.00Free Instructor’s Manual with examination and desk copy orders.

The first beginning logic text to employ the tree method—a complete formal system of first-orderlogic that is remarkably easy to understand and use—this text allows students to take control ofthe nuts and bolts of formal logic quickly, and to move on to more complex and abstract problems.

This new edition provides additional problems, solutions to selected problems, and two newSupplements: “Truth-Functional Equivalence” reinstates material on that topic from the secondedition that was omitted in the third, and “Variant Methods”, in which John Burgess provides aproof regarding the possibility of modifying the tree method so that it will always find a finitemodel when there is one, and another, which shows that a different modification—once contemplated by Jeffrey—can result in a dramatic speed-up of certain proofs.

“Goldfarb produces a modern classic. . . . No logic book I know of conveys kind warmth towardreaders or deeply modest non-dogmatic competence in the field more than Goldfarb’s 2003Deductive Logic. . . . Its examples . . . are carefully and tastefully crafted to avoid irrelevant linguistic complexities, both logical and sociological. . . . If a college instructor wants to present aQuinean form of modern first-order logic with identity and names but without functions in acompetent, accurate, and thoughtful way while avoiding patronizing spoon-feeding, this mightbe the best text. No other book I know comes close.”

MARK SIDERITSBuddhism as Philosophy

2007 $16.95 paper ISBN 978-0-87220-873-5 prof. price: $12.00304 pp. $55.00 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-874-2Copublished in the U.K. by Ashgate Publishing. North American rights only.

In this clear, concise account, Siderits makes the Buddhist tradition accessible to a Western audience, offering generous selections from the canonical Buddhist texts and providing an engaging, analytical introduction to the basic tenets of Buddhist thought.

“In my own attempts to teach Asian philosophy to American undergraduates, I have often felt thelack of a book like this one. To my knowledge, no other text leads students to question criticallythe assertions of Buddhist philosophers and to evaluate the arguments for them. Moreover, existing books often include only a few short selections from original Buddhist texts. This volume provides students with the opportunity to wrestle with the richness and complexity ofthe primary sources. Mark Siderits [is] one of the most important scholars of Buddhism in theworld. No living author has done more to make Buddhist ideas intelligible and relevant to contemporary debates in analytic philosophy.” —Charles Goodman, Binghamton University

“There has long been a great need for a book like this one. Siderits shows the grace of a wonderful teacher and hits exactly the right tone for his intended audiences. [He] moves easilybetween the Buddhist schools of thought and Western philosophical traditions. The coverage ofschools and problems is, moreover, exactly right. I can think of no other field of such great interest that lacks such an obviously needed resource. Siderits’ book fills that gap.”

—Owen Flanagan, Duke University

“[Both] philosophical and analytic, this book is superb. . . . The quality of the writing, its eleganceand clarity, is very high. Technical vocabulary is used as needed but always carefully explained.”

—Bryan W. Van Norden, Vassar College

MARK SIDERITS is Professor of Philosophy, Illinois State University.

In this engaging volume, Daniel Gardner explains the way in which the FourBooks—Great Learning, Analects, Mencius, and Maintaining Perfect Balance—have been read and understood by the Chinese since the twelfth century.Selected passages in translation are accompanied by Gardner’s comments,which incorporate selections from the commentary and interpretation of therenowned Neo-Confucian thinker, Zhu Xi (1130-1200).

This study provides an ideal introduction to the basic texts in the Confuciantradition from the twelfth through the twentieth centuries. It guides thereader through Zhu Xi’s influential interpretation of the Four Books, showing how Zhu, through the genre of commentary, gave new coherenceand meaning to these foundational texts. Since the Four Books with Zhu Xi’scommentary served as the basic “textbook” for Chinese schooling and thecivil service examinations for more than seven hundred years, this book illustrates as well thenature of the standard Chinese educational curriculum.

“Based on the best modern and traditional Chinese and Western scholarship, EdwardSlingerland’s exemplary new translation of the Analects—including selections from the traditional commentaries on each passage of the text—is a welcome edition. Contemporaryreaders will be enlightened as to what Confucius taught his disciples and will share the experience of being a neighbor to all the generations of students who have pondered thesometimes cryptic and enigmatic words of Confucius. Slingerland’s use of commentary givesreaders a fighting chance at understanding and appreciating this foundational Confucian classic.” —John Berthrong, Boston University School of Theology

“With this new translation comes a wealth of supplementary material. The Preface andIntroduction, simply written but brimming with information, are followed by a TraditionalChronology of events in the history of Confucianism. After the translation, with commentaries generously included throughout, come five appendices: (1) Glossary of Terms,(2) brief introductions to Disciples of Confucius, (3) some other Historical Personages referredto, (4) notes on Traditional Chinese Commentators cited, and (5) remarks on other relevantTraditional Chinese Texts. Quite a smorgasbord; but I suspect it will be the abundant, almosttoo abundant, citations from those commentators following each of the chapters . . . whichwill convince many that this is an item they simply have to own.”

“This translation is already a classic. It is the translation that has guidedthree generations of students and readers into a renewed appreciation of thebeauty and urgency of a masterpiece of Christian autobiography. This islargely because the translator has caught not only the meaning ofAugustine’s Confessions, but a large measure of its poetry. It makes the Latin sing in English as itdid when it came from the pen of Augustine, some sixteen hundred years ago.” —Peter Brown

“This book will make a major impact on the study, and especially the teaching,of Arabic philosophy. A major difficulty with this field has been the lack ofany adequate textbook of sources. . . . Reisman and McGinnis not only providehere a rich selection of texts that could be the basis for even a full-yearcourse on Arabic thought, but also manage to translate several importantworks for the first time; they also include some standards that would probablybe missed were they not here. It will no doubt become the standard anthology used in courses onArabic philosophy, and I will use it this way myself. The team of McGinnis and Reisman is anideal one. . . All in all, this project is to be greeted with immense enthusiasm.”

—Peter Adamson, King’s College London

“This is a very fine, well conceived collection of philosophical materials that display the intellectual rigor, power, and insights of the thinkers of the Arabic tradition. . . . What makesReisman and McGinnis’ anthology all the more valuable are the glossaries. These are a very nicetouch, very valuable tools for students. The Introduction is written at a level appropriate forundergraduates and graduate students. . . . Certainly this book is far superior to anything currently available. It is suitable for adoption not only for courses in Arabic philosophy but alsofor any general courses in medieval philosophy.” —Richard C. Taylor, Marquette UniversityCONTENTS: Introduction.

THOMAS AQUINASThe Treatise on the Divine NatureSumma Theologiae I 1-13Translated, with Commentary, by Brian J. Shanley, O.P.Introduction by Robert Pasnau

2006 $16.95 paper ISBN 978-0-87220-805-6 prof. price: $13.00384 pp. $47.95 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-806-3

Brian J. Shanley’s crisp and accurate new translation of the first thirteen questions of the first partof the Summa (traditionally known as the Treatise on God) appears with a commentary that leadsreaders judiciously through this challenging yet extraordinarily influential treatise in the philosophy of religion. By explaining technical terms, expanding upon references, explicatingpresuppositions and implied premises, clarifying the logic of Aquinas’ argumentation, and settingthe treatise within a larger context, Shanley’s commentary provides a first reading of the text thatyet manages to be of great value to more advanced students as well.

“Fr Shanley’s translation is clear, idiomatic, and accurate. A particular virtue of the translation isthat it frequently indicates along the way which Latin terms are being rendered into English as Fr Shanley renders them. This kind of flagging will help readers to get a better sense of whatAquinas is saying than they might otherwise do. . . . [The] commentary is lucid, well informed,clearly written, and, given its word count, very comprehensive. Fr Shanley homes in on just whatone would look for in a volume like the present. Hence we find him explaining Aquinas’ technical terms and showing how bits of Summa Theologiae I, 1-13 connect with each other. Healso relates Aquinas to previous and contemporary thinkers with whom Aquinas is engaging.The end product is something that can be warmly recommended to anyone looking for what Fr Shanley has tried to provide.” —Brian Davies, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

THOMAS AQUINASThe Cardinal VirtuesPrudence, Justice, Fortitude, and TemperanceTranslated and Edited, with Introduction and Glossary, by Richard J. Regan

2005 $10.95 paper ISBN 978-0-87220-745-5 exam price: $3.00192 pp. $32.95 cloth ISBN 978-0-87220-746-2

Richard J. Regan’s new translation of texts from Thomas Aquinas’ Summa Theologica II–II combines accuracy with an accessibility unmatched by previous presentations of these texts.While remaining true to Aquinas’ Latin and preserving a question-and-answer format, the translation judiciously omits references and citations unessential to the primary argument.Regan’s Introduction carefully situates Aquinas’ analysis of these virtues within the greater ethical system of the Summa Theologica, and each selection is introduced by a thoughtful headnote.A glossary of key terms and a select bibliography are also included.

“The extent of the condensation [in Regan’s edition] is considerable. . . . Surely he must have leftout something of value? I searched for unfortunate omissions. Did he include the distinctionbetween virtue and skill (in terms of intentional failure)? Yes. Does the thesis of the unity of thevirtues survive? Yes again. Is the possibility of prudence in sinners included? Yes it is, and thesearch for omissions begins to seem a waste of time. . . . I would judge the translation to be a fineeffort.” —Brian Scarlett, The Medieval Review

“This edition of the The Prince has three distinct and disparate objectives: to provide a fresh andaccurate translation; to analyze and find the roots of Machiavelli’s thought; and to collect relevantextracts from other works by Machiavelli and some contemporaries, to be used to illuminate andexplicate the text. The objectives are all reached with considerable and admirable skill. ProfessorAtkinson has done a great service to students and teachers of Machiavelli, who should certainlywelcome this as the most useful edition of The Prince in English.”

MICHAEL HARVEYThe Nuts and Bolts of College Writing$6.95 pa. exam free 978-0-87220-573-4

“Unusual for a style handbook, Nutsand Bolts embeds writing advice inessays that identify rhetorical structures as tools for ‘shaping yourideas, questions, and convictions toshare with others.’ . . . Thoughtfulchapters cover concision, clarity,flow, punctuation, gracefulness,using sources, paragraphs, andbeginnings and endings; the table ofcontents can help a writer pinpointsections, but the context provided bythe essays is what makes this guideshine. Examples are taken from abroad range of humanities disciplines,and an appendix summarizes documents and citation styles inChicago, MLA, and APA formats.[A] worthy successor to Strunk andWhite. . . .” —P. Finley, CHOICE
