The readings presented in
Returning Questions: A Dialogical Introduction to Philosophy
are short, clear and direct. They are meant to stimulate meaningful dialogue and interactive learning to populations of students who do not have the time, energy or background to commit hours of heavy study to a required three hour philosophy course. This text presents a broad scope of philosophical issues and primary sources from the history of philosophy with the intent of providing students with a general introduction to significant and relevant questions in philosophy, the humanities, and the history of thought.
