Description

In this critique of religious philosophy Beck discusses six philosophers whose works on religion he considers to be most germane to contemporary issues: Spinoza; Hume; Kant; Nietzsche; William James; and Santayana. Beck first addresses the question, "what is secular philosophy?" and then explains differences between the "families" of secular philosophers, before examining their lives and works.
