It succeeds in providing a readable introduction covering most of the major issues and arguments in the field ina style that would appeal to the student and general reader looking at this branch of philosophy for the first time.'Anthony Thorpe, Philosophy Now, Issue No. 8, Winter 1993-94, "An excellent revision of an already superb overview of both classical and contemporary issues.
