Entity and Identity And Other Essays

P. F. Strawson here presents a selection of his shorter writings from the 1970s to the 1990s in the two areas of philosophy to which he has contributed most notably: philosophy of language and Kantian studies. A new introduction offers an overview of the essays, their topics, and their interrelations. This collection represents some of the most fascinating work of one of the foremost philosophers of the late twentieth century.

Sir Peter Strawson is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy in the University of Oxford, and an Honorary Fellow of Magdalen, St John's, and University Colleges.
