American Philosophers

The American Philosophers contains papers by current leading philosophers and political theorists that explore the work of the major American philosophers from the colonial period to the present, from Jonathan Edwards to David Kaplan. The scope of this volume is both historically and philosophically broad as it encompasses the leading figures of the major schools of philosophy that have played significant roles in our intellectual history. Included are not only the famous pragmatists and the later twentieth-century analytic philosophers, but such shapers of the political and philosophical American scene as Franklin, Jefferson, Madison, Emerson, and Jane Addams.Wettstein, Howard K. is the author of 'American Philosophers', published 2004 under ISBN 9781405119245 and ISBN 1405119241.
