"One of the few comprehensive attempts to approach basic problems in the philosophy of history from the viewpoint of analytical philosophy." — American Historical Review

"A substantial work which covers a wide range of philosophical problems about history, and indeed extends to a consideration of some logical features of our whole language of time. Philosophers will admire it for its lucidity and sophistication as well for the author's care and fertility of argument." — English Historical Review
