Description
Where is philosophy going? Are we entering a post-philosophy millenium? This text provides the notion of what the future of philosophy is as a crucial concept, since it allows us to sepculate not only on the future, but also on the past. Written by international scholars, these essays consider a variety of issues, from ethics to mind, language to feminist thought, postmodernism to religion: the future of philosophy; the history of ancient philosophy; the history of modern philosophy; ethics; political philosophy; philosophy of the postmodern; applied philosophy at the turn of the millenium; feminist philosophy; philosophy of religion; philosophy of language; and philosophy of mind. For those curious to explore the intellectual themes of the future, this book should be an insightful read. Review: The Future of Philosophy clearly and succinctly presents philosophy as it is, and on this basis, offers insight into its likely future. -Daniel Frank, University of Kentucky
