About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book seamlessly presents the historical and philosophical evolution of a fundamental principle … and develops the implications of the principle in a staggeringly wide range of contexts. … a work that is engaging, lucid and supremely approachable. … the warmth and sincerity of the writing make this book a joy … . Highly recommended.” (Philosophy, Religion and Science Book Reviews, bookinspections.wordpress.com, May, 2014)Authors and Affiliations
