Interpreting Philosophy: The Elements of Philosophical Hermeneutics
by Nicholas Rescher
Publisher: Ontos Verlag 2013
Number of pages: 190
Description:

This affords good reason for attending to philosophical hermeneutics, reflecting on the issue of how philosophical texts are to be understood and interpreted.
