A Companion to Analytic Philosophy Reviews

This is an excellent resource for courses in analytic philosophy as well as for readers who want an overview of twentieth-century Anglo-American philosophy. Few books introduce readers to the entire field, and none do so as thoroughly and effectively as this one.
Daniel Bonevac, University of Texas at Austin

As the twentieth century has come to an end, a book that does the service of summarizing the views of major philosophers in the analytic tradition is greatly needed. This book gives a comprehensive coverage of all major analytic philosophers and reflects a joint effort by distinguished philosophers in the field. It will thus stand out as the standard text on analytic philosophy.
JeeLoo Liu, State University of New York at Geneseo

This attractive volume is a superb resource for anyone interested in analytic philosophy and is a worthy addition to the excellent Blackwell Companions to Philosophy series.
D. Haugen, Choice, January 2002

The essays are of a uniformly high quality, some even gems of exposition, and of a uniform style, sticking to discussion of issues and views at a common level of detail...
Journal of the History of Philosophy 2003

This attractive volume is a superb resource for anyone interested in analytic philosophy.
