Description:
Boulder, CO.: Westview Press, 1991. Scholarly text addresses the "end-of-philosophy" debate and the challenge it presents to contemporary philosophy, both continental and analytic. It is a chain of argument as well as a conversation conducted in the presence of major contributors to that debate: the critics (especially Richard Rorty) of the dominantly Platonic-Cartesian-Kantian tradition on the one hand and its defenders on the other. The author's account draws on Wittgenstein, Quine, Davidson, Habermas, Foucault, among others. 278 pp. Publisher's stamp on front endpaper. Dustjacket in mylar.. First Edition. Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
