Additional units examine Asian and Ancient Near Eastern philosophies from China, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Students read selections that address the human condition, the existence of God, reason, rationality, the conditions of war and peace, moral character, sexuality, liberty, self-knowledge, censorship, capitalism, and more. Throughout, spirited introductions and thought-provoking discussion questions encourage engagement with the material.Designed to provide students with an engrossing introduction, The Liberating Art of Philosophy is a valuable resource for foundational courses in the discipline.Ross Reed is a lecturer in the School of Arts, Languages & Philosophy at Missouri University of Science and Technology.
