    • Our take on the Ideas, Concepts, and Reality (Hardcover, 2013)

    A short philosophy book by John W. Burbidge, published by McGill-Queen's University Press in 2013. Burbidge, a Hegel scholar, examines how ideas and concepts relate to reality, drawing on the history of philosophy rather than empirical research. It suits readers with some background in philosophy who want a compact, argument-driven essay. It is not an introductory textbook and assumes familiarity with terms like concept, universal and particular.
