These writings present a balanced picture of Cahn's wide-ranging work, from free will to affirmative action, from belief in God to the teaching of philosophy. Cahn has also inserted surprising gems on the Book of Job, the wife of Lear, and the missing step in administrative searches in the University. Puzzles & Perplexities is a delightful and diverse journey through Cahn's remarkable career in philosophy.
