Customer Reviews

`Modern' philosophy in the West is said to have begun with Bacon and Descartes, whose writings, along with the seventeenth-century scientific revolution, superseded Aristotelian and scholastic science and philosophy. The contributors to this volume examine the thought of thirteen writers in all fields of philosophy and the sciences, some much studied, others relatively neglected. The essays show that the break between the `new' and the traditional philosophies is not as complete as is usually suggested.
