This book, originally published in 1989 discusses an issue central
to all philosophical argument - the relation between persuasion and
truth. The techniques of persuasion are indirect and not always
fully transparent. Whether philosophers and theoreticians are for
or against the use of rhetoric, they engage in rhetorical practice
none the less. Focusing on Plato, Descartes, Kant, Kierkegaard,
Nietzsche and Wittgenstein, this book uncovers philosophical
rhetoric at work and reminds us of the rhetorical arena in which
philosophical writings are produced and considered.
