Reviews

To acknowledge the deep impact that Sellars has had on their work, a list of prominent, contemporary philosophers honor Sellars's legacy in a volume craftily edited by James R. O'Shea with a superb introduction. Like Sellars's own work, the contributions are distributed across a wide range of topics...Although Sellars's problems have been inherited, it speaks to the quality of this volume that his solutions undergo critical scrutiny at every corner. Niels Skovgaard-Olsen, Journal of the History of Philosophy This collection is a fitting tribute to Sellars by some of his most prominent heirs and should be of interest to Sellarsians of any stripe.
