The History of Philosophy

Beautifully illustrated, this book traces the strands of thought in Western philosophy from the ancient Greeks to the present day. The book asks key questions in philosophy explored over the past 2,500 years. Within each question, approaches are considered in chronological order, showing how each philosopher's thoughts have been influenced by those who have gone before. Following the Common Core standard of exploring how two or more authors approach similar subjects, readers will learn how thinking has evolved or diversified over time.
