Description: Focused on clarity and logical argument, analytic philosophy has dominated the discipline in the United States, Great Britain and Australia for the past century, and is often seen as a unified, coherent and inevitable advancement. Laugier questions this assumption, rethinking the very grounds that drove analytic philosophy to develop and uncovering its inherent tensions and confusions.
