    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    First published in 1951, In Defence of Reason is a series of philosophical essays written at various times. Some of them are devoted to the interpretation of Kant?s philosophy, a subject which the author has made specially his own. Many of them, however, are concerned with more general topics, among which may be mentioned fashion and philosophy, self-identity, and Existentialism as an attitude to life. The main interest throughout is the defence of reason against views which reduce man to a plaything of circumstances and make his moral judgments the mere expression of non-rational emotions. This book will appeal to students and researchers of philosophy.



    Review of the first publication:


    ?The book as a whole may be strongly recommended both for content and expression.?


    ? A.C. Ewing
