周靖

Zhou Jing is an author whose writing spans Western philosophy and secondary-school history education; available public information about him is limited, with no clear record of his birth and death dates, nationality, or academic background. Three of his works are held in the collection: Pittsburgh Inquiries: Conversations on Making It Explicit and Brandom, An Introduction to Peirce's Philosophy, and A Sourcebook of Historical Documents for Secondary Schools, commonly classified under Western philosophy, philosophy readings, and examinations. These works suggest that he attends both to the American pragmatist and analytic traditions, presenting the thought of Brandom and Peirce through conversations and introductory studies, and to the teaching of secondary-school history through a documentary reader. His writing emphasizes close reading of texts and guidance through questions, and is suited to beginning philosophy readers and teaching users.
