Overview
Una visión renovadora de la historia del pensamiento moderno.
Este libro ofrece una visión sintética de la historia de la filosofía moderna desde una perspectiva analítica. Pese a su carácter necesariamente selectivo, Roger Scruton nos revela las principales figuras y las grandes preocupaciones intelectuales que han configurado la filosofía occidental desde Descartes.
Quienes se sientan interesados por la historia de las ideas no vacilarán en rehacer el camino recorrido en esta obra, a fin de examinar en profundidad las condiciones históricas en que surgieron los argumentos aquí expuestos, así como esa peculiar corriente subterránea que conduce de Hobbes a Spinoza, de Malebranche a Berkeley, de Rousseau a Kant y de Schopenhauer a Wittgenstein.
