Product Description

Review

Anyone interested in philosophy should read this book', Nicholas Bagnall, Sunday Telegraph .'Modern Philosophy succeeds in inspiring readers to explore the topic further, because one senses Scruton the mark of the true thinker, a deep sincerity and conviction', Alain de Botton, Daily Telegraph .'Scruton is a masterly writer; his book is a paradigm of lucidity', A.C. Grayling, Financial Times .'A remarkably rich smorgasbord', Oliver Letwin, The Times .'Invaluable', Frederic Raphael, Sunday Times

By Sandy
Format:Paperback
Readers have to distinguish Scruton's Tory views from the philosophy at times; however the book is invaluable for those wishing to get a perspective on the whole contemporary range of academic philosophy in one rather large but very digestible serving. He not only explains the most important themes in present-day Anglo-American philosophy but continually steps back to situate each part within the context of the whole.

An excellent book. Promptly delivered at a good price. I strongly recommend this book if you want a reasonable level of understanding of philosophical thought since Descartes. It includes references to other works for continued study.
