Industry Reviews

?There are no longer two dialogues ? analytic and continental. It is all one now, and more complicated than ever. This collection is an indispensable point of entry to the new conversations.? Barry Allen, McMaster University

?It is virtually impossible to imagine a more useful collection of texts on this thorny philosophical topic. There is no pretense that herein lies the truth about truth, but there is the realization of a set of complex issues illuminated from radically diverse, yet often surprisingly overlapping, perspectives.? Vincent Colapietro, Pennsylvania State University
