Review

"Covering such diverse topics as architecture, epistemology, art, literature, and music, the book is firmly held together by a unique vision. . . a brilliant work of destruction. All certainty seems to disappear under Goodman and Elgin's rigorous scrutiny. Rightness, adoption, and understanding are substituted for truth, certainty, and knowledge, without yielding to terminal scepticism or irresponsible relativism. The students of Goodman and Elgin know less but understand more." --Carl Rudbeck, Svenska Dagbladt

"The idea that knowledge and truth are not as absolutely crucial as we have thought is absolutely crucial: it is right." --Alexander Nehamas, Princeton University
