I noticed that you have the only copy of The Elements of Philosophy registered on LT. I'm thinking of using that text for an intro course, and was wondering if you'd let me know how you found it, especially if you were a student in a course for which it was the primary text? Did you find it to be a good collection of readings, did you find it accessible, was there any commentary/annotation of the readings, and if so was it any good, and finally did you find the cost ($72 on Amazon) prohibitive? I see that you're a grad student, in which case maybe you were the instructor of a course & used the text - in which case, I'd be interested in how you found it as well.
Thanks!
Dani
