<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>During my teaching career I heard the question, "What can you do with a degree in philosophy?" many times from some students I taught (and their parents). I know that many other philosophy professors have heard the same question.</p><p>The point works to dispel the view that studying philosophy is impractical or unimportant. As it turns out, most of the students I taught over the years who got a degree in philosophy went on to non-academic jobs and careers. They dispel the notion that the only thing one can do with a degree in philosophy is to teach philosophy.</p><p>Does studying philosophy teach one how to fix a leaky faucet? No, but neither does studying economics. Does studying philosophy lead to rewarding and fulfilling careers? Not necessarily, but it certainly can.</p>
