Recenzii
Miller (Univ. of Otago) has assembled 10 commissioned papers by well-chosen specialists who are influential writers in their respective fields. The special focus of this book is, however, Wright's substantive and careful, comprehensive replies to each of the four major themes of his critics: Gottlob Frege's philosophy and logicism, vagueness and language, logical revisionism, and the metaphysics of possibility. With respect to each of these themes, Wright provides an extensive overview of the topic itself prior to his specific responses to the contributors' various critical standpoints. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals.
