A very fine book, if in some ways dated by its examples and by certain preoccupations. But the dating serves a purpose for the contemporary reader: it makes the datedness of his or her own one-sided diet of examples and unacknowledged preoccupations stand out. Rickaby writes in a clear, racy, idiosyncratic style that is both provocative and memorable. Pair this volume with his Moral Philosophy volume or his translations of Aquinas.
