Brilliantly entertaining. * Melvyn Bragg *
As a painter of biographical portraits Anthony Kenny excels as a brilliant miniaturist. This is a marvellously stimulating way to approach autobiography. The range of his friendships and acquaintances is immense. * Peter Hennessy *
Few academic philosophers have had successful careers in public life as well as in scholarship. Among those few Sir Anthony Kenny stands out for the wide range of his intellect and the lively style with which he addresses both the realm of exalted ideas and the world of ordinary facts. These vignettes offer an engaging record of people who have mattered, from a writer who has always wondered whether he really belongs to our public culture, even though sitting at the top of it. * Roger Scruton *
Kenny's style is unpretentious, effective, and at times wonderfully informal and amiable. * Review of Metaphysics *
