1998129207London: Allen Lane: the Penguin Press. New. 1998. Hardcover. 0713992263 . - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - - SIGNED BY AUTHOR -- NEW - Personal view by this conservative British philosopher. - "Scruton a don at London University and a British TV personality sets out to do philosophy rather than talk about it. He succeeds to a large extent in making the subject accessible engaging the reader in philosophic thinking. Scruton inquires into truth time God freedom morality and even sex carefully explaining who he believes is right and who is wrong in their opinions on the subjects. For instance he warns against Nietzsche and Michel Foucault and champions everyone who believes in persons with souls and free intentions and who believes in the sacred and enchantment in the world. In addition to such authoritarian judgments Scruton sometimes gets caught up in fighting internecine battles especially against the view that genuine knowledge can only be scientific; then the clarity of his writing suffers. For example "since the origin of both self and not-self is the act of self-positing nothing on either side of the barrier is anything in the last analysis but self." When he philosophizes more freely he puts the reader in a better mood: "This idea has recurred so often as to suggest that there is truth in it or a permanent need to believe so." In the final analysis Scruton accomplishes his aim of using philosophy as therapy for our modern confusions although mental health for him lies in more conservative thinking." - Publishers Weekly Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information Inc. -- with a bonus offer-- .

Hardcover. 1890318590 . - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - SIGNED BY AUTHOR -- NEW -- Personal view by this conservative British philosopher. 254 pages. - REVIEWED BY - Mary Margaret McCabe. TLS the Times Literary Supplement. London: Jul 7 2000. Iss. 5075; pg. 10 - Booklist: "Scruton has been called the most amusing philosopher writing today. This mock Platonic dialogue which includes much narration and description bears that characterization out. The aged Plato has dispatched his former lover Archeanassa to her hometown Colophon now under Persian rule to retrieve the manuscripts of the poet Antimachus an earlier love of hers. She finds Colophon utterly changed a city of featureless office towers and a populace sharply divided into a gray mass of citizenworkers and an elite of imperial-military overlords. She also finds Perictione a young cousin of Plato's who lives in her own Greek aesthetic oasis and who engages her in discussions of architecture dance and music. Those subjects come up as Perictione relates the life of her mentor Merope an itinerant philosopher with whom she traveled before settling in Colophon. Cynicism egalitarianism and the decline of taste and civilization under both totalitarian and free-market conditions also figure in the women's exchanges. As in Plato's dialogues character and incident prove as engaging as philosophy in Scruton's tour de force." - by Ray Olson - Copyright © 2000 - American Library Association.
