This anthology of accessible readings in 20th-century philosophical classics includes recent European and American philosophers and texts that are presently seen as classics or as emerging classics. It features the best available translations of texts-complete works or complete sections of works-which are both central to each philosopher's thought and specific doctrine. Using drawings, diagrams, photographs, and a timeline to help in historical perspective, this anthology covers 20th century philosophic classics that deal with such themes as logic, idealism, metaphysics, existentialism, and empiricism; and includes works by Husserl, Dewey, Du Bois, Russell, Moore, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, Ayer, Gadamer, Sartre, de Beauvoir, Austin, Davidson, Foucault, Derrida, Rorty, Rawls, and MacIntyre. For anyone interested in owning a readable collection of 20th-century classic philosophical works.

Industry Reviews

"Students with little or no background in philosophy would likely find it difficult--if not impossible--to comprehend the works of many of the philosophers addressed in [each] volume on their own. However, this text's informative introductions and careful selection of readings make it possible for students to get a foothold in their primary texts...[S]tudents are afforded the opportunity to engage with the works of these illustrious but often inscrutable thinkers." -- Jennifer McMahon, Centre College "This collection is by far the best I have seen in this area...And I certainly prefer having all of my material together in one text rather than having students purchase half a dozen books, which then still require supplementation. I cannot imagine a better format or selection of materials that would tempt me away from this collection for another." -- Ted Toadvine, Emporia State University
