Philosophy of Human Rights: Readings in Context (Paragon Issues in Philosophy) Paperback – February 13, 2001

had to buy for a class but this book will forever stay in my personal library.

As reference that's great, so probably a solid core book, but I personally wish it had more discussion/inclusion of the "in context" writings. When it came to using it to try to apply to specific cases, in a practical sense, it felt a little weak.

At first, I thought phil 101 would be a complete waste of time. I didn't want to take philosophy class but it is a university requirement. My professor had us write an essay every week about a different philosopher with our opinions on their theories. This book goes all across the grid. The book is a compilation of writings from ancient and contemporary thinkers of different ethnicities, genders, ages, and economic backgrounds. You get different perspectives on just about any controversial subject you can imagine. Ironically, my professor and this book changed my outlook on life.

It was okay read kinda boring really. Book is a thick paperback

This book provides an excellent introduction to the philosophical foundations of early and modern human rights. A definite must-read if you're interested in the origins of the subject. Definitely recommended!

Used for a passage or three, and forgotten about. Another good resource for the phosphate student concerned with the inherent rights of the global citizen.

Book arrived in good condition
