Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy 10V (Hardcover)

June 1998 saw the publication of the Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy (REP). Eight years in development, it is the most ambitious international philosophy project for a generation. It is the first multivolume encyclopedia to be published in the field for thirty years and the first ever to be launched simultaneously in both print and electronic formats.

Key Features:
* up-to-date coverage, including recent developments
* unparalleled breadth of subject matter
* extensive market research supporting the project
* a first-class editorial team ensuring quality scholarship
* international and multi-cultural scope
* an interdisciplinary and accessible approach
* wide readership
* a choice of both print and electronic formats

Unparalleled breadth of subject matter
No other encyclopedia of philosophy is as wide-ranging and well-integrated. It includes:
* comprehensive coverage of Anglo-American philosophy - the metaphysical, epistemological and logical questions
* an extensive menu of ethics, political philosophy and historical debates
* the philosophy of western and non-western cultures - from Chinese, Arabic and Jewish philosophy to the philosophy of Africa and Latin America
* Continental philosophy and contemporary philosophy

International scope The Encyclopedia provides a grounding in the philosophy of many cultures, expanding the horizon of any reader, while being of great value to the specialist.
* A quarter of the entries cover philosophy from outside the traditional western canon
* Entries have been contributed by over 1,300 leading international experts from 36 countries, bringing a variety of perspectives to the Encyclopedia.

Accessible, structured entries
There are over 2,000 entries in the REP and each entry has been written to assist users in finding the information they require as easily as possible. There are three main types of entry:
* short 'signpost' entries
* thematic entries
* biographical entries

The REP is not only available in print but also as a CD-ROM. This CD-ROM offers:
* fast and flexible searching of all REP articles
* significant shelf space savings
* export and print options
* simultaneous access for up to 10 users within your campus at any time, with no extra charge.
