I strongly encourage students to arrange access to an encyclopedia or dictionary of philosophy.

 

A good and relatively inexpensive one is

A Dictionary of Philosophy by Anthony Flew.

 

Free on-line options include:

Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy

Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy

Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy
