Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-23 00:00:00 Rejean Neron I do love this book, but my only complaint is that sometimes the entries tend towards academic bullshit. Specifically the one on Ockham's Razor. Jesus. "A methodological principle dictating a bias towards ismplicity i theory consturciton, where the parameters of simplicity vary from kinds of entity to the number of presupposed axioms to characteristics of curves drwan between data points." Are you kidding me? Seriously? Way to sum up the gist of the theory there. (which is, more or less: The simplest explanation tends to be the correct one.)

Review # 2 was written on 2007-03-18 00:00:00 Richard Lyday My favorite (okay, only - but still, wickedly comprehensive) reference book for all things philosophical (Ayn Rand not included, yay!). I see there's a 2005 edition out though (Ayn Rand still not included, yay!). Mine is 1995. I might have to upgrade.
