In this insightful and controversial book, the eminent philosopher Stanley Rosen takes a new look at the famous 'quarrel' that the moderns have with the ancients, analyzing and comparing ancient philosophers and modern Continental and analytical thinkers from Plato, Descartes, and Kant to Fichte, Nietzsche, and Rorty. He urges that we do not dismiss the classical heritage but appropriate it, for this appropriation is an indispensable step in the process of legitimizing our historical experience.

reviewed The Ancients and the Moderns: Rethinking Modernity on September 15, 2012 The Ancients and the Moderns
While efficient it does omit certain things for the shake of originality (?). In a book about medieval thought there is no reference to Occam's razor! and the debate about nominalism and realism is barely touched upon. This maybe the view of an author but when you label your book an introductory volume on a subject you need to be more inclusive and mainstream otherwise you should explicitly mention that your book is about your personal view about the history of western philosophy.
