By Morton White

THIS VOLUME emphasizes those ideas of the philosophers of the 20th century which are most important to philosophy and least familiar to the general reader — ideas in the field of logic, and of philosophical and linguistic analysis. Yet the better-known studies of time and instinct, existentialism, phenomenology, and organism are also represented.
Philosophy in the 20th century is by no means remote from the concerns of the ordinary man and the problems of culture. In his introduction and commentary, Morton White illustrates this, and illuminates the background of the selections themselves.
The 20th century philosophers included are: Peirce, Whitehead, James, Dewey, Bertrand Russell, Wittgenstein, Croce, Bergson, Sartre and Santayana
