A Concise History of Western Philosophy
From Platonism to Nihilism
Telling the compelling story of western philosophy from Plato to Nietzsche, Mark Anderson presents a series of through-provoking interpretations of its major figures. <BR><BR>Anderson traces western thought through the conflict between the order of Being and the change of Becoming. Identifying Plato as the premiere philosopher of Being and Nietzsche as the peerless advocate of Becoming, the book tracks the transition from a realist worldview to the world of skepticism, relativism and nihilism we inhabit today.<BR><BR>Traveling from the ancient Greeks to modern nihilists, Anderson explores the thought of Parmenides and Heraclitus; Plato, Aristotle, and Plotinus; Augustine, Aquinas, and Ockham; Descartes, Hume, and Kant. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in Platonism, its place in the history of western metaphysics, and its power to help us understand the ethical crisis of our postmodern world.
