Why don't you give exact delivery time?

Short description:
This book examines critically the most important claims made on behalf of philosophy. It presents the case for a more modest view of what philosophy can accomplish, after rejecting as chimerical the ambitious claims of traditional, especially foundational, epistemology and metaphysics.
MoreLong description:
When I first conceived of this book, I intended to write a short book and one, the great philosophical figures of the past and a few very eminent contemporaries aside, which made no reference to other philosophers and contained no quotations, footnotes and the like. I ended up doing neither. Indeed I went nearly to the exact opposite. I wrote a rather long book with, among other things, extensive discussions of my contemporaries and near contemporaries.
