“A philosopher of ordinary language had brought his limpid vernacular to bear on problems of formal logic.”

The best opening line in the history of philosophy book reviewing? Quine on Strawson.

Terrible news that Chris Hookway, wonderful human being and wonderful Peirce scholar, has died. If you knew him, do consider joining me in giving to The National Brain Appeal.
