Abstract
THIS book tries to reproduce the conditions of a seminar. There is a common theme: the philosophy of G. E. Moore; there are nineteen philosophers, considering, interpreting and criticizing Moore's presuppositions, approach and philosophic method—both in general and in the specific cases of ethics and the theory of perception; there is, finally, a lengthy answer by Prof. Moore in which he takes up some of the points raised and deals with them with particular relish for fine detail, avoiding, however, treatment of more general problems.
