Praise
"No
contemporary philosopher possesses a more imaginative mind, broader interests,
or greater dialectical abilities than Robert Nozick."
—Harper's "Complex,
sophisticated and ingenious."
—The Economist "[Nozick's] powers of argument are profound, and his insights are at
times staggering in their brilliance."
—New Republic "A
major event in contemporary political philosophy...[Nozick] is always
stimulating; an open-minded study of what he has to say could be a healthy
tonic for romantic leftists."
—Peter Singer, New York Review of Books
