The idea of Continental Philosophy has never been properly
explained in philosophical terms. In this short and engaging book
Simon Glendinning attempts finally to succeed where others have
failed -- although not by giving an account of its internal unity
but by showing instead why no such account can be given. Providing
a clear picture of the current state of the contemporary
philosophical culture Glendinning traces the origins and
development of the idea of a distinctive Continental tradition,
critiquing current attempts to survey the field of contemporary
philosophy.
