    A master articulation of the state of philosophy
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2010*

Whether you agree or not with his politics, Scruton has done an indisputably great job in this book surveying, expressing, and relating all the various currents in modern philosophy. He is especially sensitive to the modern divide of the science-oriented, analytic, anglophone tradition from the humanities-oriented, phenomenological, continental tradition, appreciating and criticizing each in turn. And it's an absolute delight to read, which is saying a lot for modern philosophy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Among the Very Best Overviews
  

*by D***K on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2005*

This books leaves me with mixed emotions. On the positive side, it's the only book I know of its kind, covering almost every topic of modern philosophy. And, for the most part, it is highly accessible and remarkably clear (philosophy of language can be opaque, but that's inherent in the field). On the con side, not enough attention is paid to ethics and politics (Scruton himself is somewhat of a conservative/communitarian), and the topic of aesthetics could have been more informative. Another con is that Scruton tells the reader in advance that his own opinion will seep into the discussion, but that he'll designate it as such. Well, yes, his opinion does creep in, but it's rarely distinguished as his own. Yet, for all these quibbles, I cannot imagine a better introduction to the discipline of philosophy as it is practiced in Anglo-American circles - but without the arcane and often obtuse language. It is remarkably broad in scope, accurate in depiction, clearly mapped, and fairly thorough for an overview. If one wants an introduction into how Angophone philosophy is practiced, I cannot recommend a better book.
