McDowell and His Critics cover

The most comprehensive discussion available of the work of philosopher, John McDowell.

  • Contains newly commissioned papers by distinguished philosophers on McDowell’s work, along with substantial replies to each by McDowell himself.
  • The contributors are philosophers with international reputations for their work in the areas in which they are contributing.
  • Covers the whole of McDowell’s philosophy, including his contributions in ancient philosophy, moral philosophy, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, metaphysics and epistemology.
  • McDowell’s replies to the contributions in this volume contribute to the body of his work.

"This is an excellent collection of essays on the wide-ranging work of one of the most significant and original philosophers of our day. They raise some fundamental questions about McDowell's views on a variety of topics, to which his own exemplary responses provide extremely valuable further elaboration and development of his thought." Bill Brewer, University of Warwick

"A very welcome addition to the ‘Philosophers and their Critics’ series: there is much to be learnt from the interplay between the ten contributors’ probing papers and McDowell’s responses to them." Jennifer Hornsby, Birkbeck College
