Summer Reads in Philosophy

Hi, Friends, Lovers of Wisdom!

My students asked for summer reading suggestions in philosophy. I’ve given the request much thought and put together a list. The titles do not necessarily reflect my position on the topics discussed. Instead, I choose these books as intellectual fodder to inspire well-informed online discussions. Over the next few weeks, I will be blogging on each of the suggested readings. I hope you will join me by writing in the comments.

Only a few rules apply, you must be respectful of opinions different than your own. And, you must be able to defend your claims with evidence and a line of reasoning. Philosophy, according to the ancient Greeks, begins in wonder, love, intellectual humility, and dialogue between at least two sincere individuals. So, let the intellectual pleasures begin!

Yours sincerely,

Micah, Lover of Wisdom
