Ranging over 2,500 years of philosophical writing, this five-volume collection of essays is an unrivalled companion to the study and reading of philosophy. Central Works of Philosophy provides both an overview of particular works and clear and authoritative expositions of their central ideas, giving readers the resources and confidence to read the works themselves. These books offer remarkable insights into the ideas out of which our present ways of thinking emerged and without which they cannot fully be understood.

Volume 5 covers the central texts in the history of analytic philosophy, from Quine's Word and Object to McDowell's Mind and World. The texts range over political philosophy, ethics, metaphysics, and the philosophies of language, mind, and logic. Representing some of the most important philosophical work of the last forty years, these essays provide a map and compass for the current philosophical landscape.

Contributors include Ruth Abbey, Anita Avramides, Philip Bricker, John Burgess, Peter Clark, Gary Kemp, Anthony Laden, Kirk Ludwig, Alan Malachowski, Adrian Moore, Paul Snowdon, Tim Thornton, Peter Vallentyne, and Bernhard Weiss.
