"...those interested in Brentano's thought but new to it will find plenty to engage them and to encourage further study. Scholars already familiar and involved with Brentano studies will also find much with which to work...Overall, the balance between exposition of Brentano's thought and engagement with the philosophical issues themselves, keeps the spirit of philosophical inquiry alive in a way that Brentano himself would surely approve. The book is appropriately dedicated to the memory of Roderick M. Chisholm." -Susan Krantz Gabriel, St. Anselm College
