Description and Table of Contents

Description

To assess the main trends of philosophy in the world today, the author avoids using a simple geographical framework and favours instead a schema that identifies philosophical fields or loci with questions being presently researched and discussed. The identification is made on the basis of the main conceptions that philosophers of various leanings have themselves formed of philosophy, its aspirations, course, function and task within the culture of our time.
