Routledge Revivals- Philosphy Without Metaphysics

Holmes argues that metaphysics’ reliance on intellect and pure reason undermines the study of philosophy and suggests a return to intuitional philosophy. First published in 1930, this title will be ideal for students interested in Philosophy and Western Civilisation.

In this title, Holmes argues that metaphysics’ reliance on intellect and pure reason undermines the study of philosophy. Rather, Holmes suggests a return to intuitional philosophy, combining thought and feeling. First published in 1930, this title will be ideal for students interested in Philosophy and Western Civilisation.
