Reviews
A Materialist Philosophy of History is a truly intriguing piece of work. In a conscientious, thorough, and combative manner it grapples with the implications of a materialist worldview for the discipline of history. The arguments have the potential to move the debate within philosophy of history forward by pushing anti-foundationalism back. Adherents of the latter will want to take issue with the book, but the scholarship is much too solid, the breadth of knowledge too wide, and the arguments too convincing for its views to be brushed aside. -- Tor Egil Førland, University of Oslo
