Synopsis

Established scholars will enjoy the versatility and incisiveness of much of the reading in these essays, even though they may be heard muttering stifled oaths from time to time. New readers will relish the combativeness and assurance, the readiness to try out new ideas. No one could miss the vitality and open-mindedness of approach, or remain uninvigorated by it.-from the Foreword
