Modern philosophy has been plagued by evil, according to Susan Neiman. She argues that this is due to the way that the discipline has been shaped by the philosophical tradition of the Enlightenment. Neiman provides an alternative history of philosophy, in which the development of modern philosophy is imbued with a spirit of goodness and justice. This book provides a unique and insightful perspective on some of the most important philosophical thinkers of the past two centuries.; 8vo; 358 pages.
