"The United States has produced a great many idiosyncratic champions of human freedom, Walt Whitman and William James above all. It is time to recognize Rorty's place in that lineage." - Dissent "Rorty is an extraordinarily important and influential philosopher, both inside and outside philosophy. His thoughtful political and social views are worth presenting in interview format ... Many of the interviews here are otherwise inaccessible, making this collection invaluable." - Samuel C. Wheeler III, University of Connecticut
