Reviews

Review from previous edition
`an excellent source book'
Times Higher Education Supplement
`the most comprehensive dictionary of philosophy in English'
Times Literary Supplement
`A very useful and handy dictionary with clearly written notices, which focus on the essential aspects. It should belong to the bookshelf of any student or scientist interested in the impact of philosophical questions. I shall recommend it for the part of my course devoted to the nature of science.'
