Description
The Engaged Intellect Philosophical Essays
This collection brings together important essays by John McDowell, each offering a sustained engagement with the views of influential philosophers. McDowell's approach is characterized by a method of indirection, where he preserves the attractive aspects of his interlocutors' ideas while critiquing their weaknesses.
Through this process, McDowell develops his own philosophical picture, revealing the unity of his thought and demonstrating a unique blend of breadth and depth in his arguments. This volume showcases McDowell's distinctive philosophical style and cements his reputation as one of the most compelling philosophers of our time.
