In the twentieth century, philosophers tackled many of the philosophical problems of previous generations by dissolving them--attacking them as linguistic illusions and showing that the problems, when closely inspected, were not problems at all. Roy A. Sorensen takes the most important and interesting examples from one hundred years of analytic philosophy to consolidate a different theory of dissolution.
"Pseudo-Problems" offers a fascinating alternative history of twentieth century analytic philosophy. It seeks to outline a unified account of dissolution that can consolidate the piecemeal insights of analytic philosophers. An accessible account of questionable questions, the book represents an important contribution to the debates about creativity and problem solving.
Industry Reviews
"Roy Sorensen's "Pseudo-Problems is clear and flowing . . . it is extremely rich with examples. This is a very rewarding book and a great pleasure to read." -James Robert Brown, University of Toronto
