Reviews
From the reviews:
“This collection of recent philosophical papers … provides a nice selection of the current debates and crucial issues at play in philosophy. … To the potential reader this collection contains a solid sampling of modern philosophy that showcases a strong defence of rationality and the progress made in the philosophical method. … If you are interested in reading an example of what philosophers have been up to lately then pick up a copy of Rationis Defensor. You will not be disappointed.” (Charles Gibson, Scoop Review of Books, February, 2013)
