Yesterdays Today: A Journey Into Philosophy
No Customer Reviews
Reid's memoir covers life in a Scottish manse in the late nineteenth century, his schooling at the Leys in Cambridge before the first world war, and philosophical life in the inter-war period--with sketches of leading figures from Russell (whom he disliked) to Wittgenstein, Moore and Whitehead. And his memoir has a cast of ancillary characters from Harold Laski (the political theorist) to A.S. Neill (the educationalist) and Alfred Zimmern (one of the founders of UNESCO), not to mention a number of leading figures in the religious debates of the period. Louis Arnaud Reid was an influential writer on aesthetics in the middle part of the twentieth century, and later held the foundation chair in the philosophy of education at the University of London's Institute of Education.
