Cr�ticas

"The 12 essays by 12 different authors are clear and concise; they offer both summaries and critiques that give valuable guidance to those who are new to the writings of these thinkers." (CHOICE, 2009) "It is recommended not only to readers not yet familiar with philosophical discourse and concerns, but also to 'insiders' who wish to get a clearer view of the various debates and discussions that are taking place in philosophy today." (Metapsychology, August 2009) "This book was a superb idea and has been superbly done." Brad Hooker, University of Reading "This engaging collection of incisive and lucid essays on twelve major contemporary contributors to the subject elegantly delivers a synoptic view that, in making this work readily comprehensible to the non-specialist without a hint of oversimplification, shows philosophy for what it is at its best: enlivening, stimulating, exacting, and -- true to the promise of its Socratic origins -- ever capable of provocatively unsettling the otherwise unexamined presumptions that would blind us to life's absorbing complexities. Informative, illuminating reading." Garry L. Hagberg, University of East Anglia
