The Great Conversation: A Historical Introduction to Philosophy by Norman Melchert Now in its fifth edition, this historically organized introductory text treats philosophy as a dramatic and continuous story--a conversation about humankinds deepest and most persistent concerns.

Tracing the exchange of ideas between historys key philosophers, The Great Conversation: A Historical Introduction to Philosophy, Fifth Edition, demonstrates that while constructing an argument or making a claim, one philosopher almost always has others in mind.

The book addresses the fundamental questions of human life: Who are we? What can we know? How should we live? The fifth edition retains the distinctive feature of previous editions: author Norman Melchert provides a generous selection of excerpts from major philosophical works and makes them more easily understandable to students with his lucid and engaging explanations.

The authors commentary offers a rich intellectual and cultural context for the philosophical ideas conveyed in the excerpts.
