Ideally suited to novice philosophy students, it will also be of interest to those in related subjects across the humanities and social sciences.
Review
'The chapters are of a uniformly high quality and many are written by luminaries in their fields ... ' -- James Ladyman, senior lecturer in philosophy, Bristol University, The Times Higher Education Supplement
'The collection really comes into its own in terms of the breadth of subjects covered and the depth of discussion. Few other introductions contain such detailed discussions; even fewer do so while covering such a range of subjects.' -- Chris Lindsay, University of Glasgow
