Reviews

Traviss Objectivity and the Parochial is a collection of eleven previously published essays with a new introduction. The volume is philosophically generous, covering numerous themes including, but not limited to, logic and its laws, empiricism, idealism, psychologism, moral thought, thought and representation per se, truth, and the social character of thought. * Craig French, University of Cambridge, Mind Association *
