Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Growth of Modern Philosophy
The central idea of this book is the intimate connection between real life and real thought. Philosophies are personal and national, and only thus can they be human. For that reason political history has been noticed. The world's life gives philosophies birth and death. We are now perhaps at the birth of a less provincial and less wordy philosophy than any which has been produced in the past.
