Description

John Herman Randall, Jr., one of the outstanding philosophers of our time, whose The Making of the Modern Mind has become a modern classic, offers in this book his mature considerations on two subjects that have long engaged his thoughts - history and nature, which "together offer the great challenge to the philosophic mind". The twelve essays in this book represent the development of his thought on this problem over a period of years. Eight of the essays are published here for the first time, and the others have been completely rewritten for this volume.
