First Philosophy is an introductory reader with substantial notes that effectively situate classic and contemporary readings. The second edition has additional readings and revised introductions as well as two new appendices.
"I would recommend First Philosophy to anyone teaching an introductory philosophy course." -- Paul Churchland, University of California, San Diego
"This is an extremely well-done philosophy text. ... [It] should become a standard in introductory philosophy classes." -- Patricia Blanchette, University of Notre Dame
"First Philosophy has a good selection of articles for my purposes, and the accompanying introductory background material is absolutely brilliant." -- Jillian Scott McIntosh, Simon Fraser University
"The introductions are fabulous; students find them very helpful. Overall, First Philosophy is an excellent anthology for first-year students; the text has made my job significantly easier." -- Jennifer M. Phillips, Indiana University, Bloomington
"Bailey's extensive and informative introductions are excellent and are a great help to both students and instructors. Bailey's choice of readings along with his wonderful introductions make First Philosophy the best introductory philosophy text I have used." -- Marc Ereshefsky, University of Calgary

The explicative material is likewise excellent: clear, highly relevant, useful, easily understood. The wonderful supplementary material makes this a very good text indeed." -- Jeff Foss, University of Victoria
"First Philosophy combines a great selection of texts with thoughtful, accessible introductory material. It's a wonderful, perfectly pitched introduction to the discipline for lower division students. It is always my first choice when I'm teaching 'Intro.'" -- Shannon Dea, University of Waterloo
