McDowell and His Critics

John McDowell's work has had an immense and lasting influence on philosophical thought. This volume contains newly commissioned papers by distinguished philosophers on McDowell's work, along with substantial replies to each by McDowell himself. The essays cover the full range of McDowell's seminal contributions in philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, ancient philosophy, moral philosophy, and epistemology. Together, they offer by far the most comprehensive discussion of his work currently available.
