Critic Reviews

“Those who teach philosophy will appreciate the end result of Professor Stramel's work: students writing as philosophers!>”

This is a 'must buy' β€” both for students who want to learn how to do philosophy and for philosophers who want to teach it better. -- Heidi M. Hurd, University of Pennsylvania Australasian Journal of Philosophy
Those who teach philosophy will appreciate the end result of Professor Stramel's work: students writing as philosophers!> -- Katherine Shamey, Santa Monica College Australasian Journal of Philosophy
Stamel has a good eye for the recurring problems we see in students struggling to come to terms with the discipline. He has produced a book which would be useful to have in one's campus bookshop, with a copy on reserve in the Library as well. Australasian Journal of Philosophy
