An Introduction to Modern Philosophy by Karim Matta... Cyril Edwin Machson Goode was one of the most famous philosophers and historians of philosophy in the first half of the twentieth century. He succeeded in attracting a large audience and guiding them through the complexities of ancient and modern philosophies with his popular books, radio talks, and his accessible yet insightful style. This book is an excellent introduction and in-depth discussion of some of the most important philosophical currents at the beginning of the twentieth century, such as materialism, idealism, pragmatism, and the philosophies of Russell and Bergson. It begins each chapter with a comprehensive presentation of the most important principles of the philosophical current and concludes with a balanced discussion between the critics and proponents of that current.
