Title: Thorough overview of major issues, an essential introduction
Review: Hosper's "An Introduction to Philosophical Analysis" wasthe text for a philosophy course I took a long time ago-- 1965. I have had kept it in my library ever since.It serves me as a reference and periodic refresher on theterminology and principle issues of Western philosophy. Ifyou keep forgetting the true meaning of ontology, deism,epiphenomenalism, the emotive theory of ethics, etc., thisis the book for you. If you get into arguments in anyof these areas, buy this book! Hospers uses practicalexamples from everyday life and mixes in some clever withere and there.
