Review Quotes
1. This book is easy and pleasant to read. It s a rare collection of the heart-felt thoughts of relaxed philosophers presented in ordinary spoken English. Metapsychology
This book gathers reflections and insights from a remarkably varied number of philosophers, cutting across gender, race, age, cultural, and spiritual perspectives. We are treated to discussions out of the classroom and far from the textbooks on topics that probe the frontiers of philosophy as it is practiced now and as it should be pursued in the century to come.
No collection of interviews with philosophers now available comes anywhere close to the breadth and variety this collection represents. Edward F. Mooney, editor of Wilderness and the Heart: Henry Bugbee s Philosophy of Place, Presence, and Memory
"A Parliament of Minds is a sweet and important book: as good an introduction to the state of philosophy now and in the future as can be imagined. The philosophers interviewed among them some of the best minds in the world are various, vigorous, and lively. Beyond their differences they share a touching and slightly bizarre optimism about the future of philosophy and its relevance to the concrete difficulties of real people. Crispin Sartwell, author of Act Like You Know: African-American Autobiography & White Identity
An unexpectedly new yet deeply traditional form the interview provides a stunning introduction to the subject of philosophy, whose living substance bears true fruit only in dialogue. David Appelbaum, editor of Parabola"
