Book Description
Focusing on universal, current issues of concern to all people, ROOTS OF WISDOM leads students to the understanding that philosophical inquiry can provide. No other book offers such breadth of multicultural coverage coupled with the clear, concise, and approachable writing style that Mitchell offers. Women philosophers and non-Western philosophies are integrated throughout as they relate to the canon. Mitchell uses popular culture to illustrate timeless philosophical problems, using extremely accessible examples of cartoons, poetry, movies, and references to popular music that bring the issues of philosophy to life for the student.
