Framing THEORY'S EMPIRe carries on the conversation with sophistication and flair. -Denis Dutton, editor, PHILOSOPHY & LITERATURE . . .

John Holbo's commitment to using the Internet as an instrument for bringing about precisely such a dialogue is a wonderful example of how new technologies can enhance the quality of our intellectual exchanges. And to make that lively dialogue be the object of another book, on-line and in hard copy, is a further contribution. -Daphne Patai, editor, THEORY'S EMPIRE . . .
