A most thorough and wonderful review! (Score 1)

Superlative review! Though now I am left with a quandry. I have read some snippets and some discussion elsewhere of the book and was drawn to picking up a copy. But after the review I am not sure. I think that philosophers have been trying, desperately at times, to keep themselves relevant in an age when mathematics and science have taken over. His review of the book indicates some of the verbal gymnastics that philosphers engage in just to try to be on the same playing field as the physicists. But to quote an old saw I think they are whistling in the dark as they pass the grave of philosophy. Thank you for the review and continue please to enlighten us.
