| "Cogent and original, conducted with exemplary clarity
and critically interconnected in a persuasive fashion... the
challenge to both Hegelian and Heideggerian readings of Platonism
is credibly established and bravely prosecuted." |

| "An exceptionally well-structured and clearly written
treatment of an exceptionally important, ambitious and difficult
subject. The commitment to a challengingly wide range of research
in the history of philosophy is amply justified by the success
of its execution... An exemplary study of ancient and of German
Idealist philosophers, reaching well-subtantiated conclusions
about a range of subjects involved in the claim of 'Platonism'...
Ian Leask has acknowledged his debt to many workers in the field,
but he has made their contributions fully his own, and has gone
to the widest frames of reference to achieve a fully unified
- but not 'totalising' - understanding of some of the deepest
questions of philosophy." |
