The 8th edition of Classics of Western Philosophy trumps the 7th editionas well as all competing anthologiesby including Platos Laches, selections from Aristotles Nicomachean Ethics (on courage), Descartes Discourse on Method, the remainder of Berkeleys Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge, and the whole of Kants Prolegomena, all in preeminent translations. These additionswith no offsetting deletionsyield an anthology of unprecedented versatility, making it the only volume of its kind to offer both Descartes Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy; Berkeleys A Treatise Concerning Principles of Human Knowledge and Three Dialogues; and Kants Prolegomena and selections from the Critique of Pure Reason.
