Great Beginning Philosophy Book!

Classic Questions and Contemporary Film provides an easy way to examine the most common philosophical topics. It is the perfect way to introduce philosophy to those new to common questions found in philosophy. The correspondence to contemporary film allows us to relate the beginnings of philosophy to new age life. It is an easy way to give meaning to studying philosophy today. I would recommend it as a great start to not only understanding but working through common philosophical issues.
