This is a book on philosophy which subjects several theories to critical examination and asks how they relate to our commonsensical notions of reality. Among the celebrated philosophers whom the author tries to debunk are Plato, Hegel, Kant, Foucault, Popper, Nozick, Feyerabend and Goodman.
This is a book of philosophy, written by a philosopher and intended for anyone who knows enough philosophy to have been seriously injured, antagonised, mystified or intoxicated by it. Stove is passionately polemical, a philosophical counterpart to Tom Wolfe. Setting out to deflate a few philosophical reputations, he lambastes both the dead (Plato, Hegel, Kant, Foucault) and the living (Popper, Nozick, Feyerabend, Goodman). Yet he says things that need to be said, and that others often lack the courage to say.
