Modern Philosophy: An Anthology of Primary Sources

The leading anthology of its kind, this volume provides the key works of seven major philosophers, along with a rich selection of associated texts by other leading thinkers of the period thoughtfully chosen to enhance the reader s understanding of modern philosophy and its relationship to the natural sciences of the time. Texts are provided in their entirety or in substantive selections.

Enhanced in its second edition by the addition of selections from Montaigne and Reid, as well as judiciously expanded selections from the works of Newton and Hume, Modern Philosophy remains the preeminent text for the teaching of modern philosophy.
