Reviews
'Day's work is intended as a study guide. Its structure and content closely reflect the undergraduate teaching of the philosophy of history, with recommendations for further reading.' Times Higher Education, 'Day raises the philosophy of history to a new level, combining sharp theoretical criticism with a wealth of historical examples. While Mind, Metaphysics, and Morality may remain philosophy's great obsessions, this book will give a real boost to the proper study of History.' Dr George Botterill, University of Sheffield and Hang Seng Centre for Cognitive Studies, UK, 'This is the broadest and most updated introduction to the philosophy of history on sale. It is written very clearly and would be an ideal basic textbook for introductions to the philosophy of history and historical methodology.' Dr Aviezer Tucker, School of Politics, Philosophy and International Relations, Queens University, Belfast

    Shipped super quickly and was packed very securely (in a plastic sheath, then tightly bound in plastic wrap to a cardboard piece that kept the book from being bent in transit, and put in a bubble mailer). The book itself is exactly as described and is one I've been looking to add to my collection for a long time. Thank you!!
