Media Reviews
If Conant and Elliott hadn't done it, I would have thought it was impossible--an anthology that does full justice to the breadth and depth of analytic philosophy, and makes available the significant insights of the philosophers who have shaped the tradition and who loom large in determining its future. Conant and Elliott have, as well, provided the historical context for understanding the tradition, and informative and helpful headnotes illuminating the individual entries. All in all, this is a remarkable achievement, indispensable for beginners and useful for advanced students or anyone wanting to think about what analytic philosophy is and how it got to where it is now.--Cora Diamond
