Features: This series of books can be summarized into two characteristics: First, it presents authoritative knowledge, which comes from authoritative works and is objective, with very little of my personal opinions or biases. If there is anything that leans slightly toward "bias," it is my yearning for peace and tolerance. I hope everyone can tolerate or even agree with my "bias." Second, in my books, any knowledge, whether historical, philosophical, or related to literature, art, science, or geography, will be presented in a clear, straightforward, and even elegant or humorous way, allowing everyone to easily absorb and digest it. Regarding this point, I ask you—my respected readers—to open to any chapter or section of this book.
This is the sequel to the widely acclaimed Story of Western Philosophy. The author continues to use accessible and fluent language to narrate the life experiences and influential philosophical systems of classic philosophers in the history of modern Western philosophy, from Nietzsche to Bergson, Russell, the Vienna Circle, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, and others. It presents a series of fascinating chapters in the history of human culture, also making it clear to us the extremely important exploration of modern Western humanistic thought and wisdom.
