A fine crisp and tight like new copy in a fine and crisp dustjacket/brodart covered,first printing. "A critique of the radical relativism in philosophical thinking that has pervaded late-twentieth-centrur culture." "The author has written a thoughtful book about contemporary forms of historicism to the roots of modern philosophy itself. Assumptions about historical meaning and the historicity of social practices have become common in much late-twentieth-century work in the social science and the humanities, and this 'first philosophical' treatment is a readable, provocative, and intelligent an account of the deepest issues as any published in recent years.=-Robert B.
