Review Quotes:
"This is a superbly written, quite concise account of a lesser-known, but clearly important American philosopher of the first half of the twentieth century. Boodin's work clearly deserves to be better known, and Flannery does an excellent job in providing a very well-written account of this interesting individual's contribution." - Patrick H. Armstrong, author of All Things Darwin
