It takes a fresh and engaging look at the common themes that dominate this period, as well as examining the differences in the work of the six philosophers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough vivid and witty prose, Richard Francks skilfully presents ideas that have informed the development of philosophy as we know it, and which present a challenge to beliefs and attitudes that most of us now share. In this work we find the source of modern philosophical inquiry - questions such as the existence of God, the Mind and Body problem, the idea of self, and the existence of the world had their birth in these texts - as well as broader questions about political and social philosophy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThinkers discussed: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRene Descartes\u003cbr\u003eBaruch Spinoza\u003cbr\u003eGottfried Willhelm Leibniz\u003cbr\u003eJohn Locke\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Berkeley\u003cbr\u003eDavid Hume \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis will be ideal for anybody coming to the ideas of these philosophers for the first time.","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46931993329815,"sku":"9781857285659","price":2857.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781857285659.webp?v=1771617733","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/modern-philosophy-the-seventeenth-and-eighteenth-centuries-9781857285659","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
