Genuinely, This Book Was A Great Read
I read this book very, very fast because of the fact that is is seven separate stories, there was something bran new every fifty or so pages, so you go through the book very fast. The stories are fast paced and exciting and good for anyone that likes a good fantasy or ...
Introducing Kierkegaard, New Edition (Introducing (Icon))
Dave Robinson
Totem Books
, 2007
Soren Kierkegaard is regarded as the founder of Existentialism and the first modern theologian. Philosophy, in Kierkegaard's radical view, was of no use unless it permanently changed people's lives. His distrust of grand abstract schemes, particularly Hegel's, and his insistence that philosophy is essentially writing also identify him as a ...
Introducing Empiricism
Dave Robinson
Totem Books
, 2004
Our knowledge comes primarily from experience. But is experience really what it seems? Is it reliable? Empiricist philosophers accept a commonsense view of fact and yet conclude that all we can ever know are ideas. Physical reality may not exist at all!

Great book!
I'm a first year psychology major and I got this book from our local library to read it whenever I had nothing else to do. I have to say I love this book. This is a great intro to psychology. There are 101 topics sorted alphabetically. And then each topic has been ...

The view from 40,000 feet - nifty and useful
I agree with the positive comments by other reviewers. The book is unclear in a few places, but a visit to Wikipedia can fill in the gaps. I also agree that Gaarder's novel "Sophie's World" provides a much better explanation and discussion, especially for newcomers ...

Pretty good
This vol. in the what if series compiled the issues that were released in late 2006. Unlike the other vollums this only has 5 issues instead of the usual 6. The Watcher who appears in most of series only appears in 3 of the stories. What If: X-Men: Deadly Genesis ...
Introducing Plato, New Edition (Introducing (Icon))
Dave Robinson
Totem Books
, 2005
deceptively informative
This is the first book from the "Introducing..." series that I have read, and I am impressed. At first glance the books in this series may perhaps look a bit simplistic as each page has a large cartoon style drawing with about a paragraph of text, but distilling the ...
Introducing Rousseau (Introducing...)
Dave Robinson
Totem Books
, 2007
Intriguing and Enigmatic
I doubt I can do Jean-Jacques Rousseau "credit" with this attempt of a "review." If complex, intriguing, and enigmatic personalities are your cup of tea -- coupled with a genuine appreciation of the 18th-century Enlightement Period -- then this book is for you. ...
