Praise for previous editions:

"Noonan writes with exceptional clarity, has a masterful command of the issues and of the literature, and is judicious, acute and clear-headed in his analysis and criticisms of arguments and positions." - Times Literary Supplement

"Well informed and sophisticated discussion....Very rewarding and challenging." - Mind

..."an ideal source book for those seeking a rigorous but accessible introduction to the topic. Noonan's discussions are fair and accurate, and his criticisms are often well-placed. Highly recommended." - CHOICE
