History of Modern Philosophy

Richard Falckenberg's 'History of Modern Philosophy' provides a comprehensive and accessible guide to the development of philosophical thought from the 15th-century to the present day. Originally written in German, this text-book is intended to aid introductory work and academic lectures, as well as serving as a guide for the wider circle of cultivated readers. It covers philosophers such as Descartes, Locke, Kant, Schelling, and Hegel, and explores their theories on a range of topics including ethics, metaphysics, and the philosophy of nature.
