Softcover. Condition: Good. Revised Edition. The 1948 paperback issue of C.E.M. Joad's Guide to Modern Thought arrived just as its author, then one of the most recognisable public intellectuals in Britain was being publicly undone by the most pedestrian of scandals. The book discoursed earnestly on Pavlovian conditioning and the mechanics of human behaviour; meanwhile Joad himself was being hounded from the BBC and the lecture circuit for the very behaviour he had once joked about in print: slipping past railway inspectors without paying. The timing was exquisite. A philosopher explaining the springs of conduct, published at the precise moment his own conduct became a national punchline. The result is a paperback that now reads with an unintended, almost theatrical irony: a guide to modern thought released just as its author was learning, rather abruptly, about modern consequences. 347 pages. A lucid, accessible survey of major philosophical ideas shaping the modern world. Joad introduces key thinkers, debates, and intellectual movements, aiming to give readers a clear grounding in contemporary philosophical questions. Original printed card covers.
