'New Realism and Old Reality, a Critical Introduction to the Philosophy of the New Realists' provides a rigorous and insightful examination of the New Realist movement that emerged in the early twentieth century. Author Daniel Luther Evans offers a comprehensive critique of this influential philosophical shift, which sought to challenge the dominance of idealism by asserting the independent existence of the perceived world. The work meticulously analyzes the core tenets of the movement, exploring the epistemological and metaphysical foundations laid by its key proponents.Evans navigates the complex arguments regarding the nature of consciousness, the relationship between the knower and the known, and the status of logical and mathematical truths. By contrasting the 'new' realism with traditional concepts of reality, the book highlights the innovative-yet often controversial-approaches taken by philosophers of the era to reconcile scientific discovery with philosophical inquiry. This volume serves as an essential resource for scholars and students interested in the history of American philosophy, the development of modern epistemology, and the ongoing debate between realism and its critics. Through clear exposition and critical evaluation, Evans illuminates a pivotal moment in intellectual history that reshaped the landscape of modern thought.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
