Teachers will be happy to have so many fine readings from which to choose.'</strong> - <em>Harry Gensler, Times Higher Educational Supplement</em><br /><br /><strong>'The quality of Warburton's anthology is surely sufficient to silence the doubters who continue to believe philosophy cannot be popularised without being deformed. </strong><em>Philosophy: Basic Readings</em><strong> has filled a long-running vacancy for an introduction to philosophy that can be recommended without caveat or qualification.'</strong> - <em>Julian Baggini, Times Educational Supplement</em></p>
