Biography
Rachael Wiseman is Addison Wheeler Research Fellow at Durham University, UK
‘This book is clearly, beautifully, and thoroughly organized. The content is exciting and offers a thoughtful and compelling reading of Anscombe’s Intention.’
Candace Vogler, University of Chicago, USA‘This superb Guidebook is an essential companion for anyone trying to understand Anscombe’s brilliant but somewhat elusive book. It enables the reader to see the unity in what can seem a rather disparate work, in ways that students and professional philosophers alike will find eye opening.'
