Description: This anthology of readings in the survey of Western philosophy--from the Ancient Greeks to the 20th Century--is designed to be "accessible" to today's readers. Striking a balance between major and minor figures, it features the best available translations of texts--"complete works" or "complete selections of works"-- which are both central to each philosopher's thought and are widely accepted as part of the canon. The selections are readable and accessible, while still being faithful to the original. Includes Introductions to each historical period and to each philosopher, and an abundance of drawings, diagrams, photographs, and a timeline. This "Combined Volume" contains the most important works from Baird's "Philosophic Classics, Volumes I- V." ANCIENT GREEK PHILOSOPHY. Plato. Aristotle. HELLENISTIC PHILOSOPHY. Epicurus. Epictetus. Plotinus. MEDIEVAL PHILOSOPHY. Augustine. Boethius. Anselm (and Guanilo). Moses Maimonides. Thomas Aquinas. William of Ockham. Pico Della Mirandola. MODERN PHILOSOPHY. Ren
