In 1998, the first edition of Anthony Kenny's comprehensive history
of Western philosophy was published, to be met with immediate
praise and critical acclaim. As the first book since Bertrand
Russell's 1945 A History of Western Philosophy to offer a concise
single-author review of the complete history of philosophy from the
pre-Socratics to the modern masters of the 20th century, Kenny's
work fills a critical gap in the modern philosophy reading list and
offers valuable guidance for the general reader of philosophy--an
ideal starting point for anyone with an interest in great thinkers
and the family lines of philosophical evolution. Widely considered
to be one of the most thorough and accessible historical reviews in
philosophy, An Illustrated Brief History of Western Philosophy has
earned an estimable and distinctive reputation, both for the
compelling writing style of Anthony Kenny, one of the most
respected and accomplished living philosophers, and for the rich
collection of paintings, illustrations, maps, and photos included
with every chapter to complement this review of 2,500 years of
philosophical thought. Newly revised and expanded for a special
20th anniversary publication, the latest edition of An Illustrated
Brief History of Western Philosophy contains all of Kenny's
original writings on the history of Western philosophy from ancient
to modern, along with new writings on the philosophy of the
mid-20th century, covering important contributions from continental
philosophers and philosophers of the post-Wittgenstein anglophone
tradition, including the work of many women who have too often been
neglected by the historical record.
