Every one of these fifteen texts is thought-provoking and immensly learned. and it is a pleasure to follow Kenny's thought from one theme to another ... Kenny has again managed to do what he set out to do in his work on the history of Philosophy, 'to be more accurate than Russell and more entertaining than Copleston'.

Hallvard J. Fossheim, Philosophical Quarterly

For someone familiar with Kenny's prior work, reading this book, with its easy, conversational style, has the feel of sitting down with him for an engaging philosophical conversation.

Jeffrey Hause Mind 119

[These essays] document the most recent phase in the evolution of the thought of one of the most significant philosophers working today... Those new to Kenny's thought will find these papers offer an ideal first path into his comprehensive, careful, and clearheaded work. Those already familiar with his writings will be entertained and enlightened by these occasional pieces from the most recent phase of Kenny's distinguished career.
