Continental Philosophy since 1750: The Rise and Fall of the Self (A History of Western Philosophy, Vol. 7)
"The central virtue of this study is Solomon's presentation of such difficult material in both a readable and succinct manner.  The very idea of covering some 250 years of philosophy in 200 pages is mind-boggling.  But not only does Solomon manage to accomplish this feat, he does so in a very readable manner....[It] is a book that could be successfully used in undergraduate courses....It would allow the student burdened by the complexity and difficulty of the texts of the great Continental philosophers to get a good sense of their overall views."--Teaching Philosophy"Clear, learned, concise, useful."--Brian Finney,University of Southern California
