John Passmore chronicles the ideas of towering figures — Collingwood, Ayer, Mill, Bradley, Wittgenstein, McTaggart, Spencer, Russell, Boole, Sartre, Bosanquet, and Whitehead — tracing how each thinker reshaped the boundaries of reason, language, and existence. Passmore presents their arguments not merely as historical artefacts, but as living debates that continue to reverberate through contemporary thought.\n\nWritten with rare precision and intellectual breadth, this work stands as one of the most comprehensive surveys of analytic and continental philosophy in the English language. Passmore's prose is rigorously clear yet never reductive, illuminating the deep tensions between empiricism, idealism, and existentialism that defined a century of philosophical struggle. For anyone seeking to understand how modern philosophy came to be what it is today, this is an indispensable — and deeply rewarding — starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130605904091,"sku":"2026200010216-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/7ac13d51-d462-4d1c-b0f0-8d863938681a.png?v=1786587456","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200010216-secondhand-a-hundred-years-of-philosophy","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
