Rezensionen
"Addressing topics from epistemology and metaphysics to ethics and psychology, it is the most compete treatment of the subject known to me." "I can recommend this book without hesitation."
(Philosophy In Review)
"This companion is large indeed, but the size fits the largeness of its subjects; and it does succeed in its 25 articles in covering that subject . . . A job well done. Recommended."
