Description

For introductory courses to Philosophy. This text offers a fresh approach to introductory courses by focusing on three human practices: morality, science and religion. Each practice is discussed from three perspectives. The first group of selections looks at the nature of the practice itself, and the relationship with the problems of human meaning and purpose in life. Culture selections investigate the larger social, economic, and political implications of the practice―What is the role of morality in popular culture? In markets? In education? What are the practical and cultural implications of science and technology on our understanding of moral responsibility? On our relationship with other creatures and the natural environment? On human reproduction? Is religion socially useful or harmful? What is its proper role in education? Should it be kept out of politics? Reason selections weigh the truth and objectivity of claims within morality, science and religion―In what sense might they be true or objective? Does truth matter? Are there limits on what each is able to understand about the universe that another can complete? Should we participate in the practice even if its core claims are not true or able to be shown so?
