Philosophy 101

[Mental Note: start preparing for Philosophy 1 exam]… Our set text for Philosophy is the Squashed Philosphers website. The website basically has abridged works of a whole bunch of Philosophical ninjas. Check it out.

Here are some other online resources for Philosophy. Warm fuzzy for the name of the dude in the above pic. [clue: "I think, therefore I am"]

    Another good site
    Do they make you study philosophy? Do you enjoy it?

    Get your hands on a copy of the Action Philosophers Comics. You’ll thank me for it. Last year there was a question in the exam that was not covered in the set text but was in the comic.
    Plus Plato wearing a Mexican wrestling mask is comedy gold.

    sounds fun!
    is it in moorebooks?
    or mainstream book shop?
    or special order from some underground cave?

    I got mine at Kings Comics on Pitt St. The guys in my year who bought it got it either through Amazon or Book Depository. If you’re on Mooreish, I posted some samples last year. There’s three volumes at about $10 each.
