Modern Philosophy is an exploration of the ideas of six major
thinkers from Descartes to Hume. It takes a fresh and engaging look
at the common themes that dominate this period, as well as
examining the differences in the work of the six philosophers.
Through vivid and witty prose, Richard Francks skilfully presents
ideas that have informed the development of philosophy as we know
it, and which present a challenge to beliefs and attitudes that
most of us now share. In this work we find the source of modern
philosophical inquiry - questions such as the existence of God, the
Mind and Body problem, the idea of self, and the existence of the
world had their birth in these texts - as well as broader questions
about political and social philosophy. Thinkers discussed: Rene
Descartes Baruch Spinoza Gottfried Willhelm Leibniz John Locke
George Berkeley David Hume This will be ideal for anybody coming to
the ideas of these philosophers for the first time.
