LOVED Prof. Bailey. Lectures are super interesting and he's amazing at explaining difficult concepts. Always happy to help or answer questions. Favourite Prof so far, would take another course just because he was teaching it!

The textbook is super well written. Its easy to read and the lectures are worth attending. He is a super nice guy, kind of dorky lol Be ready to really analize philosophy and be able to write good papers about them. You will have a couple to do

Prof. Bailey is an extremely great lecturer. He really knows how to explain himself and always gives the class to discuss and ask questions. The textbook isn't really need, but I used it to further understand certain arguments.

I really wish I had experienced the joy of being a student of Prof. Bailey before my final semester at Guelph. So willing to help, makes boring subject matter interesting, and is funny in lecture. Definitely one of, if not the best, professor in the philosophy department. Do yourself a favour and take a class of his!

The best prof i have had. He actually took his time - DID NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT ASKING ME TO GO TO MY TA- to meet with me and look over an essay i wrote. He gave me great advice to enhance my essay.

His class is unbelievably intense (maybe just cause I suck at philosophy?), but I would take it again in a second just cause he's such a great prof. Funny, and very entertaining.

what makes bailey a great prof is his ability to teach logic, which is a tough thing to teach and tough to understand for first-timers. and his funny random comments in class are classic :)
