This volume suggests an answer to the obvious, but difficult, question: What happened in twentieth-century philosophy?
In Kant’s Wake evaluates the four main trends in philosophy in the twentieth century — Marxism, Anglo-American analytic, American pragmatism, and continental philosophy — and argues that all four evolved in reaction to Kant’s fascinating and demanding philosophy. It gives a sense of the main thinkers and problems and the nature of their debates, and it provides an intriguing assessment of the accomplishments of these philosophies.
