In Defence of Wonder and Other Philosophical Reflections
'What comes across, on almost every page, are Tallis' enthusiasms for both philosophy and - even greater - for writing itself. And for once the back-cover puffery, where we are told of his verve, insight and wit, most definitely hits the mark.' --Christopher Belshaw,Times Higher'This collection of essays supplies what has been wanting for some time: an introduction, for the non-specialist reader, that gives some indication of the breadth and depth of Tallis's work. Tallis is not just a polymath, but a most congenial thinker with whom to exercise one's intellect.' --The Guardian'A profound, entertaining and engaging collection.' --Church Times
