Cr�ticas

This book will interest both those who have been involved in the profession of philosophy in Australia and New Zealand, and those who have an interest in what such philosophers have to say to the general public on topics such as religion, love, and time. Future historians may well find some of the chronicles of individual departments, included here, important documents for any real history of philosophy in this region, in which the contradictions in what is said here will be ironed out. Was Arthur Prior an important New Zealand philosopher? Was Jack Smart Australia's best philosopher? Only time will tell. -- Annette Baier, University of Otago Among academics, philosophy in Australasia is best known for materialism about the mind, realism about almost everything, and consequentialism in ethics-and for fighting way above its weight. These entertaining, informed, and often delightfully opinionated lectures tell us how this came to be, and why there is so much more to say about philosophy in Australia and New Zealand, much of it of great interest outside academe. -- Frank Jackson, Australian National University/Princeton University
