Philosophical investigation is the root of all human knowledge. Developing new concepts, reinterpreting old truth, and reconceptualizing fundamental questions, philosophy has driven human progress for over two millennia. In this concise history, Scott Soames demonstrates not only philosophy's profound impact on our religion, our morality, and our understanding of ourselves, but also its world-shaping contributions to modern science, technology, and politics. Chronicling philosophy's role in advancing fields as diverse as law and logic, psychology and economics, and relativity and rational decision theory, The World Philosophy Made illuminates the inexhaustible richness of philosophy and its influence on our lives.
