In this collection of essays, which were first delivered as
lectures at the International Academy of Philosophy in the
Principality of Liechtenstein in 1998, distinguished philosopher
Peter Geach confronts some of the most difficult issues in
philosophy with the precision of a logician and the grace and wit
of an accomplished stylist. These essays constitute a significant
addition to Professor Geach's esteemed body of work in philosophy,
as he addresses not only problems of logic and analytic philosophy,
but also of epistemology and ethics. Geach's engaging discussions
of human nature, truth, goodness, and love provide probing insight
into perennial themes in an appealing, highly readable style which
is nevertheless forceful and exacting. Geach knows the subjectivity
of his own experience and belief and is able to illuminate that
experience and belief by submitting it to a rational and
philosophical inquiry. His avowed Catholic perspective is neither a
weapon nor a shield. It is an integral part of the sustained,
systematic, and constructive approach to philosophy demonstrated in
these essays. They will certainly provoke serious reflection even
in those inclined to disagree with Geach's conclusions.
