List I Adam Morton's Sample Course
Reading: At the end of each chapter there
is a reading list. Some of the books mentioned are too difficult
for the average first-year student. (But remember, some of your
class are not average first-year students.) If I had to choose
20 books to put on a library reserve list to accompany a course
derived from this book (especially Parts I and II) my list would
be:
Annas, Julia. An Introduction to Plato's Republic.
Bunnin,
Nicholas, and Eric James. The Blackwell Companion to Philosophy.
Chalmers, A. F. What is this Thing called Science?
Cottingham, John. Rationalism.
Cottingham,
John (ed.). Western Philosophy: An Anthology.
Harman, Gilbert. The Nature of Morality.
Hempel, C. G. Philosophy of Natural Science.
Hume, David. Inquiries.
Hume, David. Dialogues on Natural Religion.
Le Poidevin, Robin. Arguing for Atheism.
Mackie, J. L. Ethics: Inventing Right and Wrong.
Martin, Robert M. There are Two Errors in the Title of this
Book.
Mill, John Stuart. On Liberty.
Nagel, Thomas. What does it all Mean?
O'Neill, Onora. Acting on Principle.
Singer, Peter . Practical Ethics.
Stroud, Barry. Hume.
Taylor, Richard. Metaphysics.
Turnbull, Colin. The Mountain People.
Woolhouse, R. E. The Empiricists.
Of course, you may want to make a different
selection from the full bibliography of the book, depending
on the course you are giving.
