Abstract
Though the book pretends to be little more than a sampling, Caturelli's intention is to philosophize while engaging in exposition. This means that the presentation of authors and schools—a vast array from logical positivism to Thomism—attempts to recover the dialectic of contacts and reactions actually at work in the unfolding of contemporary thought in Argentina. This intention, however, does not mar the author's objectivity. More importantly, all schools and all authors are treated on a par in terms of the importance of their contribution. The reason for this is that national thought is considered as a unity resulting from the impact of all its sectors; not as a mere plurality of factions seriously engaging in mutual ignorance or insistently trying to be different.
