One of the world's most original and unorthodox philosophers, Peter Unger has been a major contributor to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and philosophy of mind. A native New Yorker, for the past thirty years he has been a Professor of Philosophy at New York University.
"...these two volumes bring together some excellent papers by one
of the greatest contemporary analytic philosophers.... Unger pulls
it off with a style and a sense of humour that is inviting to
professionals and laymen alike.... Given Unger's wide range of
published interests, there is something (if not a few things) in
this collection for everyone."--Neil E. Williams, Notre Dame
Philosophical Reviews
"Unger has always been a very original and independent
philosopher,.... Unger's earlier papers are classics partly because
of their originality, and partly because they give concise
expression to deep and difficult philosophical problems.... in an
appealing style. Fortunately, Oxford University Press has recently
reprinted Unger's papers in two useful volumes." --Tim Crane, Times
