Download or read book The Philosopher's Alice written by Peter Heath and published by Saint Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 1974 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Heath's insightful annotations prove that the central concern of 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and 'Through the Looking-Glass' is with the bounds of sense and the limitation of reason. Heath takes the reader on a fascinating walk through the thickets of philosophical blunders, logical fallacies, conceptual confusions and linguistic breakthroughs that decorate the landscape of Alice's world. As a result, Lewis Carroll is elevated to a place alongside such eminent philosophers as Bertrand Russell and Wittgenstein.
