First Edition of Philosophical Explanations; Inscribed by Robert Nozick
First edition. Octavo, original cloth. Warmly inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "For Ruth and Ted, with fondness, after a very pleasant day together. Bob Nozick." Fine in a very good dust jacket with some rubbing to the extremities.
"An important book...[Nozick is] a philosopher who is answering the questions posed by such philosophers as Kierkegaard, Sartre, Marcel and Buber with the aid of tools produced by such very different philosophers as W. V. Quine, Saul Kripke and Hilary Putnam...[He displays a] striking and imaginative originality. For he does nothing less than propose a new way of doing philosophy...Perhaps one good way for the serious general reader to attack this often difficult but always rewarding book would be to begin at the end. First read the fine last chapter on 'Philosophy and the Meaning of Life'...It should then be very clear why it is important for you, whoever you are, to go back and read the rest of this book" (Alasdair MacIntyre New York Times Book Review).
