John McDowell's philosophical ideas are both influential and
comprehensive, encompassing philosophy of mind, philosophy of
language, epistemology, ethics, metaphysics and the history of
philosophy. This book is a much-needed systematic overview of
McDowell's thought that offers a clear and accessible route through
the main elements of his philosophy. Arguing that the world and minded
human subject are constitutively interdependent, the book examines and
critically engages with McDowell's views on naturalism of second
nature, the inner space model, intentionality, personhood and
practical wisdom. The book presents novel discussions on the debates
between McDowell and other key philosophers, including Hubert Dreyfus,
Robert Brandom, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Donald Davidson, Maurice
Merleau-Ponty and Immanuel Kant, amongst others. Demonstrating a
thorough understanding of McDowell's work, Tony Cheng makes
connections to both the phenomenological tradition and cognitive
sciences to show the wider relevance of McDowell's philosophy. In
doing so, he sheds light on how influential McDowell's thought is to
the analytic tradition.
