Arguably the most influantial of all contemporary English-speaking philosophers, Richard Rorty has transformed the way many inside and outside philosophy think about the discipline and the traditional ways of practicing it. Drawing on a wide range of thinkers from Darwin and James to Quine, Wittgenstein, Heidegger and Derrida, Rorty has injected a bold antifoundationalist vision into philosophical debate, into discussions in literary theory, communication studies, political theory, and education, and - as a public intellectual - into national debates about the responsibilities of America in the modern world. The essay in this volume offer a balanced exposition and critique of Rorty's views on knowledge, language, truth, science, morality and politics. «
