Críticas

"The engaging enthusiasm of the author, and his delight in problems, puzzles and arguments, crackles from page to page." Times Literary Supplement "This book is doubly unique. It engages the students directly in the activity of philosophizing, leading them into the heart of important problems through stimulating exercises. And, it provides students with a unified account of a variety of philosophical issues." Zev Trachtenberg, University of Oklahoma
