The Making of a Philosopher: My Journey Through Twentieth-Century Philosophy

Name: The Making of a Philosopher: My Journey Through Twentieth-Century Philosophy
Author: Colin McGinn

by Colin McGinn

Colin McGinn teaches us that we need nevertheless to master the art of clarity of both thought and exposition. He writes with perfect clarity: a clear, unburdened, unaffected, UnFrench UnGerman philosophical prose. The book has a presentation of the Kripke idea of naming as necessity of such clarity that I felt actually smart reading it.
