This revised and updated edition of a standard work provides a
clear and authoritative survey of the Western tradition in
metaphysics and epistemology from the Presocratics to the present
day. Aimed at the beginning student, it presents the ideas of the
major philosophers and their schools of thought in a readable and
engaging way, highlighting the central points in each contributor's
doctrines and offering a lucid discussion of the next-level details
that both fills out the general themes and encourages the reader to
pursue the arguments still further through a detailed guide to
further reading. Whether John Shand is discussing the slow
separation of philosophy and theology in Augustine, Aquinas and
Ockham, the rise of rationalism, British empiricism, German
idealism or the new approaches opened up by Russell, Sartre and
Wittgenstein, he combines succinct but insightful exposition with
crisp critical comment. This new edition will continue to provide
students with a valuable work of initial reference.
