An accessible basic guide to critical post-Enlightenment European thinking, this book introduces fifteen key figures in modern Western philosophy.

There are individual chapters on Kant, Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, Weber, Freud, Lukàcs, Adorno and Horkheimer, Husserl, Heidegger, Gadamer, Wittgenstein, Arendt, and Lévi-Strauss. Each chapter offers contextualization, explains major concepts and the thinker's relevance to an ongoing tradition, and offers suggestions for further reading.
