Europe Mein Darshanshastra : Bacon Se Marx Tak

This book, part of the Philosophy: East and West series, begins with a discussion of the Renaissance and the rise of modern science, and offers a critical analysis of the philosophical trends of that period, considered highly thought-provoking in the history of modern European philosophy. It is remarkable that philosophers of that time were committed to science, while simultaneously examining the contradictions of the bourgeoisie that modern science had brought to the fore. At the same time, they blindly supported religion and faith to counter the seeds of revolution inherent in modern science itself. The author examines this entire process in detail, revealing the fundamental characteristics of philosophers. The occasional discussion of historical contexts makes this book even more interesting and readable. It also considers many topics that have either not yet been addressed in the study of European philosophy, or, if they were, have tended to be overlooked. In short, this book is a must read to understand scientific thought and the interrelationship between science and society.
