"I would recommend First Philosophy to anyone teaching an introductory philosophy course."--Paul Churchland, University of California, San Diego "This is an extremely well-done philosophy text.... [It] should become a standard in introductory philosophy classes."--Patricia Blanchette, University of Notre Dame "First Philosophy has a good selection of articles for my purposes, and the accompanying introductory background material is absolutely brilliant."--Jillian Scott McIntosh, Simon Fraser University "The introductions are fabulous; students find them very helpful. Overall, First Philosophy is an excellent anthology for first-year students; the text has made my job significantly easier."--Jennifer M. Phillips, Indiana University, Bloomington "The main difference between other anthologies and First Philosophy is Bailey's supplementary material, which is excellent. The biographical materials are very interesting.... The explicative material is likewise excellent: clear, highly relevant, useful, easily understood.... The wonderful supplementary material makes this a very good text indeed, which should, I think, gain a large share of the market."--Jeff Foss, University of Victoria "Andrew Bailey and Robert Martin's First Philosophy: Knowing and Being is exemplary. In my judgement, its selection of pieces on the philosophical issues involved in thinking about knowledge, science, God, mind, and free will could hardly be bettered. The book offers instructors an ideal means of introducing students to the rigours and joys of serious philosophical reflection."--Mark Migotti, University of Calgary "Andrew Bailey and Robert Martin's First Philosophy: Knowing and Being is exemplary. In my judgement, its selection of pieces on the philosophical issues involved in thinking about knowledge, science, God, mind, and free will could hardly be bettered. The book offers instructors an ideal means of introducing students to the rigours and joys of serious philosophical reflection." -- Mark Migotti, University of Calgary Praise for the first edition of First Philosophy: "I would recommend First Philosophy to anyone teaching an introductory philosophy course." -- Paul Churchland, University of California, San Diego "This is an extremely well-done philosophy text. ... [It] should become a standard in introductory philosophy classes." -- Patricia Blanchette, University of Notre Dame "First Philosophy has a good selection of articles for my purposes, and the accompanying introductory background material is absolutely brilliant." -- Jillian Scott McIntosh, Simon Fraser University "Bailey's extensive and informative introductions are excellent and are a great help to both students and instructors. Bailey's choice of readings along with his wonderful introductions make First Philosophy the best introductory philosophy text I have used." -- Marc Ereshefsky, University of Calgary "First Philosophy combines a great selection of texts with thoughtful, accessible introductory material. It's a wonderful, perfectly pitched introduction to the discipline for lower division students. It is always my first choice when I'm teaching 'Intro.'" -- Shannon Dea, University of Waterloo "First Philosophy provides a very good selection of the central works of philosophy, both classic and contemporary. Where it stands out above the crowd, though, is through its extensive and unfailingly helpful introductory material to each selection. Together with its judicious use of footnotes clarifying and explaining technical terms and potentially obscure references, this results in an introductory text that has few, if any, equals." -- Martin Godwyn, Capilano University "Andrew Bailey and Robert Martin's First Philosophy: Knowing and Being is exemplary.
