Title: Boring, Boring, Boring!
Review: The by line for the book should credit Plato, Socrates, Aristotle and their colleagues. The most writing done by Minton or Shipka is the brief introductory paragraph (or sometimes sentence) before each essay written by great philosophers. The book has it's uses in entry-level courses but considering the average reader is a college student whose attention span is limited if the material is not provocative to read, the text's usefulness is greatly reduced. College professors, pass this one up.
