Recenzje

Milnes's book is a finely discriminating and persuasive contribution to the scholarly debate on philosophies of intersubjectivity and disinterestedness, candid conversational style amid social conventions, and ethics that lies at the very heart of Hazlitt's incomparable achievements as an essayist.
