This book is organized into two sections, each one of which reflects the developments of the Anglo-American Analytic and the Continental European philosophical traditions respectively. An appendix presents the main accomplishments of Far Eastern philosophers in the same time frame. Each section discusses the main movements and fields of the discipline throughout the century. The authors have maintained a balance between the historian's commitment to breadth and accuracy with the commitment of the systematic philosopher to the engaged point of view and to critical reflection. The result is a distinctive reference book made up of a series of philosophical studies -an invaluable companion to anyone who is searching for a panoramic but also reliable and challenging presentation of the philosophical ideas which shaped the last century. Key Features are: includes introductory essays on how to recognise continental and analytic philosophy; each chapter addresses its subject matter in-depth; contributors are specialists in their field; and; includes a section on African, Indian and Far Eastern philosophies of the twentieth-century.
