Reviews
From the reviews:
“This volume opens with a brief, but powerful essay by the editors … and a very welcome one. The aim of the volume … is to recognize and advance developments in our understanding of the ways in which the study of the history of philosophy can be pursued. … provides considerable reason to hope that we can build on the new insights … and arrive at a perspective from which we can better evaluate not only the PSR, but also rationalism itself.” (Michael Della Rocca, Philosophy in Review, Vol. XXXII (5), 2012)Editors and Affiliations
