Philosophical Traditions : A Text With Readings , by Louis P. Pojman
(1997, paperback, 465 pages)
Note: This book is relatively expensive. I present it here in
response to the good reviews and readers comments, and its upward
sales trend, but it isn't my recommendation for a reader who
expects a paperback book to be inexpensive. The last time I
checked, it was $60.95 -- M.L.
