Description

It's a gem that our awesome publishing company has brought

to life. Now, as part of my job, I get to dive into countless books, and I must

say, this one is an absolute delight. No need for any unnecessary delay, let me

give you a sneak peek into what makes it so worthwhile. Are you ready?

Let's jump right in with the introduction .Welcome to the world of

transformative learning with OpenStax

Education is a powerful tool that has the potential to unlock opportunities for

every individual. At OpenStax, we are on a mission to make education work for

every student. As part of Rice University, a nonprofit charitable corporation, we

believe that knowledge should be accessible to all, breaking down barriers that

hinder learning.

Our commitment to accessibility is reflected in the licensing of our resources.

Introduction to Philosophy is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution

4.0 International (CC BY) license. This means you have the freedom to distribute,

remix, and build upon the content, provided you give appropriate credit to

OpenStax and the content contributors. Customize the book to suit your course's

needs, picking the most relevant sections for your syllabus. You can even share

direct links to specific chapters through your learning management system,

making learning seamless and efficient.

We empower instructors to create tailored versions of our books, making them

available to students at affordable prices, either in print or digital formats.

OpenStax ensures that the art within the book is also openly licensed, allowing

reuse as long as proper attribution is given.

Quality is of paramount importance to us, and every OpenStax textbook

undergoes rigorous review. While we strive for perfection, occasional errors may

occur, and educational frameworks evolve over time. But, thanks to the webbased

nature of our books, we can make regular updates to ensure the best

learning experience. If you spot an error or have a suggestion for improvement,

we encourage you to contribute through our website.
