F. Strawson, illustrating the breadth of his work across philosophy of language, metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, logic, the mind–body problem, and aesthetics. The collection centers on the influential title essay on free will, resentment, and moral life, followed by essays on perception, causation, identification, categories, Wittgenstein, and self, mind, and body. This 2008 reissue adds a substantial new foreword by Paul Snowdon and an intellectual autobiography by Strawson.","Freedom and Resentment  \n‘Prime philosopher of Oxford’s golden age, and champion of both the richness of ordinary language and of natural beliefs’ The Guardian  \n‘Distinguished Oxford philosopher whose spare, elegant work made  \nsense of Kant’s metaphysics’ The Independent  \n‘A stimulating and wide-ranging book.’ A.J. Ayer, New Statesman  \n‘. . . this collection enabled one to appreciate the great versatility Professor Strawson has. We have here, under one cover, valuable contributions to the most diverse and broad ranging problems in philosophy.’ Philosophical Books  \nAt the time of his death in 2006, Sir Peter Strawson was regarded as one of the world’s most distinguished philosophers. First published thirty years ago but long since unavailable, Freedom and Resentment collects some of Strawson’s most important work.  \nBroadly conceived as analytical philosophy, the essays in this collection demonstrate the vitality of Strawson’s thinking on such topics as the philosophy of language, metaphysics, epistemology and aesthetics. Beginning with the title essay, Freedom and Resentment, which has been called the most influential philosophical article of the twentieth century, this invaluable collection demonstrates the great range of Strawson’s thought as he discusses free will, ethics and morality, logic, the mind-body problem and aesthetics.  \nThis reissue includes a substantial new foreword by Paul Snowdon and a fascinating intellectual autobiography by Strawson, which together form an excellent introduction to his life and work.  \nFreedom and Resentment And other essays  \nP.F.  \nStrawson  \nFirst published in 1974  \nby Methuen & Co Ltd.  \nThis edition published 2008  \nby Routledge  \n2 Park Square, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon OX14 4RN  \nSimultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge  \n270 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10016  \nRoutledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group, an informa business  \nThis edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2008.  \n“To purchase your own copy of this or any of Taylor & Francis or Routledge’s collection of thousands of [eBooks please go to www.eBookstore.tandf.co.uk](eBooks please go to www.eBookstore.tandf.co.uk) ”  \n© 1974, 2008 P.
