Description

"The Blackwell Guide to American Philosophy" offers an ambitious survey of American philosophical thought. Consisting of 24 newly commissioned chapters, each written by a leading scholar, the volume provides a state of the art overview of the major 18th-, 19th- and 20th-century philosophical movements in America, including idealism, pragmatism and naturalism. The contributors also look at the major figures in American philosophy - ranging from Charles S. Peirce to Justus Buchler - and examine major philosophical themes such as religion, education and art. Each chapter includes a bibliography to inspire and facilitate further study. Taken as whole, the book provides a comprehensive history of philosophical thought in America, suitable for both students and scholars of American philosophy.
