5.0 out of 5 stars A great find

Excellent overviews of every philosopher and every concept. Very well written. Most of the major philosophers get about 5 full pages, and the most important get many more. Covers details of their personal and professional lives. A great gift for any philosophy major. I really wish I owned this in school.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is easily the best encyclopaedia of philosophy anywhere
Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2017

This is easily the best encyclopaedia of philosophy anywhere. The entries are really scholarly articles by largely U.S. specialists on those particular philosophers.The depth and quality of the writing and research is Inevitably. it has dated a little since the late 1960s when it was first published but I have no hestitation in saying this set of 4 invaluable books is the first 'go to' resource for anyone who wants to know about leading philosophers and philosophers. Paul Edwards, the Editor, was a very clear, precise and gifted teacher. First class in every way and a marvel to read.

this is one of the major works of philosophy in the twentieth century and it is extremely readable and remarkably complete. Paul Edwards was a very astute editor and a terrific and clear writer.

This is a classic encyclopedia of Philosophy, I believe still the only printed edition of an encyclopedia in
English -- purchased at a bargain price -- about $30.
