Rezensionen
"This is an excellent resource for courses in analytic philosophyas well as for readers who want an overview of twentieth-centuryAnglo-American philosophy. Few books introduce readers to theentire field, and none do so as thoroughly and effectively as thisone."

As the twentieth century has come to an end, a book that doesthe service of summarizing the views of major philosophers in theanalytic tradition is greatly needed. This book gives acomprehensive coverage of all major analytic philosophers andreflects a joint effort by distinguished philosophers in the field.It will thus stand out as the standard text on analyticphilosophy.
