The Interpretive Tradition gives a synoptic picture of two centuries of philosophical thought on reality, life, humanity, society, knowledge, morality, and individuality--and much else besides. Its contents, along with the editor's introductions, allow the reader to follow different paths through its extraordinarily rich material and makes every path taken a dazzling intellectual adventure. It is a book that one will take up again and again and always leave it more knowledgeable--and perhaps a little more wise.--Alexander Nehamas
