Review
"Students with little or no background in philosophy would likely find it difficult–if not impossible–to comprehend the works of many of the philosophers addressed in [each] volume on their own. However, this text's informative introductions and careful selection of readings make it possible for students to get a foothold in their primary texts....[S]tudents are afforded the opportunity to engage with the works of these illustrious but often inscrutable thinkers." – Jennifer McMahon, Centre College
"This collection is by far the best I have seen in this area....And I certainly prefer having all of my material together in one text rather than having students purchase half a dozen books, which then still require supplementation. I cannot imagine a better format or selection of materials that would tempt me away from this collection for another." – Ted Toadvine, Emporia State University

The anthology I use to teach 17th and 18th Century philosophy
By Nate
I don't usually like anthologies and rarely teach from them -- I tend to prefer a primary text approach, partly because it allows students to see the development of ideas in their full context and because I expect philosophy students to be interested in developing their personal library of philosophy. This volume, however, is an exception and I've been using this volume for several years (and three separate editions) to teach my "History of Philosophy: 17th and 18th Century." Since I try to cover quite a bit in the course (empiricism, rationalism, social contract theory, transcendental philosophy -- in the works of Descartes, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Pascal, Berkeley, Hume, Spinoza, Leibniz, and Kant), but don't have the time to read everything by every thinker, this volume is almost perfect. It has almost everything I cover and includes both good brief introductions and fairly broad excerpts from each thinker. There is enough, at least, to illustrate the general approach and broad themes and key issues from most every thinker it includes. I've looked at a few other anthologies of Modern philosophy and they are usually either too specific (e.g. focused on 17th but not 18th century philosophy) or too broad and narrow in their coverage. This one is just right, and would be an excellent volume to get for an orientation to the basic problems of modern philosophy that sets the stage for both 19th Century continental thinkers like Hegel and Schopenhauer and Marx and Nietzsche and Kierkegaard, as well as for 20th century developments in both analytic (that picks up from Hume and to a lesser degree Kant and largely bypasses the German Idealist movement) as well as continental philosophy (in Heidegger, Sartre, etc.).
One quibble: I do wish there was more from Rousseau -- the latest volume has excerpts from the Social Contract and while that may be his most historically important work it doesn't show as clearly as some of his other works his distinctive approach to thinking -- that does not fall clearly under a rationalist or empiricist label. To give a better flavor of Rousseau I supplement this volume with Hackett's translation of the Second Discourse (On the Origins of Inequality).

Definitely adequate, but could be improved
By Doug Erlandson
Volume 1 of the "Philosophical Classics" series, edited by Forrest E. Baird, provides an adequate range of primary-source writings from the standard ancient philosophers. Starting with the pre-Socratics (including Pythagoras, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Anaxagoras, Gorgias, and others, the anthology moves on to Socrates/Plato and Aristotle. (Significant selections from a number of Plato's dialogues are included.) Later Greek and Roman philosophers, such as Epicurus, Zeno of Citium, Epictetus, Leucretius, Marcus Aurelius, Sextus Empiricus, and Plotinus are also included, but are given less space than Plato or Aristotle.
While the volume contains an adequate number of representative selections from the ancient world for use in a course in Ancient Philosophy, there is far less by way of editorial introduction than would be ideal to guide the reader through these selections. In general, there is a very brief introduction to the thought of each philosopher whose writings are anthologized, followed by the writings themselves without further editorial comment. For example, the Republic of Plato, from which there is an extensive selection running some 70 pages, is discussed very briefly and superficially in two paragraphs in the editorial introduction to Plato's thought as a whole. This is certainly inadequate to prepare the student for what to look for as he or she reads through the Republic.

Don't be fooled!
By vivian darkbloom
This anthology is an expensive attempt to clone Hackett's Modern Philosophy, edited by Ariew and Watkins. The Hackett reader is almost half the price of this one and includes far better translations.
