5.0 out of 5 stars
Readable and concise outline,
By Kenghis Khan (nprvl,il,usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philosophy and Logical Syntax (Hardcover)
One of Carnap's perhaps unparalleled strengths amongst 20th century (and even among so-called Anglo-American-Quasi-German) philosophers is his commitment to fluid writing and clear, comprehensive presentations. Philosophy and Logical Syntax is one of this author's most readable works, and that would be saying a lot. While the work hardly touches the surface of what Carnap was up to, it presents the gist of what he was working on. Beginning with the "elimination of metaphysics" in highly condensed form, Carnap then proceeds to develop his argument that philosophy is logical analysis. He concludes with the extremely simplified but nevertheless important elements of his philosophy of science. While the work fails to do justice to Carnap's early works, it nevertheless presents an outline of what he was getting at to the reader new to Carnap.
