Since Antonia and Stewart are apparently too classy to self-promote via the weblog, I figured I would post about their new text for them.
“Debates in Modern Philosophy“, edited by Steward Duncan and Antonia LoLordo, through Routledge, is an introduction to major issues in modern philosophy.
The format of the book is to couple an older, well-known article on a particular debate with a newly commissioned piece responding to the classic article. Each of these article pairings is preceded by an editorial introduction to the debate.
My exam copy arrived just recently, so I haven’t had a chance to look through it just yet, but I am excited about the format the book takes, in terms of helping students understand the nature of interpretive debates.

It’s only $40 in paperback?! This looks excellent. (And at the risk of damning with faint praise, the cover looks really neat, too.)
