The History of Philosophy: Three Millennia of Thought from the West and Beyond

The History of Philosophy by A.C. Grayling is a landmark single-author overview of philosophical thought spanning three millennia. Designed as the first single-author history of philosophy written from a secular, rigorous analytical perspective since Bertrand Russell's classic A History of Western Philosophy (1945), Grayling provides a clear, accessible, yet intellectually uncompromising examination of human thought.

The book is structured into two main divisions:

Western Philosophy: Traces the main sequence of Western intellectual history from the Pre-Socratics through Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, the Hellenistic and Medieval periods, the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, 19th-century systems, up to the 20th-century divisions of Analytic and Continental philosophy.

Indian, Chinese, Arabic-Persian, and African Traditions: Unlike older canonical overviews, Grayling explicitly devotes substantial sections to non-Western traditions, exploring Eastern systems such as Upanishadic thought, Buddhism, Jainism, Confucianism, Daoism, Mohism, as well as classical Islamic and African philosophy.
