The book explores the evolution of materialism within the continental philosophical tradition over the past two centuries, emphasizing a shift toward understanding ideas as having material impact on history rather than merely reflecting being. It delves into the relationship between sensation and cognition, arguing that key philosophical assertions, like "I think, therefore I am," are rooted in cognitive processes rather than empirical reality. This distinction is presented as central to the development of continental philosophy, revealing deeper implications for epistemology and action.
