Check these books out!

Okay, so before I get started into the really good stuff, I thought I'd share with you these books. They are where I get most of my information, and are just generally very interesting reads.

Fundamentals of Philosophy by David Steward, H. Gene Blocker, and James Petrik. This is the text book we use in my class. I really enjoy the writing style and how the authors use a lot of examples. Placing philisophical ideas into real world context makes understanding the theories so much easier.

The Philosophy Gym - Stephen Law. It's '25 Short Adventures in Thinking'. This is phenomenal! The author discusses everything from God to aliens. Even if you don't think you like philosophy, I bet you will enjoy this book.
