It answers the need for a comprehensive assessment of how the project of philosophy can be transformed in order to address the realities of gender, sexual orientation, race, and ethnicity. This is an important work for philosophers and their students to read, think about, and discuss. No one will finish it without having questioned their understanding of philosophy. -- Thomas E. Wartenberg, Mount Holyoke College\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Yancy's anthology 'troubles' the purity of philosophical waters and re-acquaints the philosophical community with that all important question, 'what is philosophy?' What we understand, and are given, through the various philosophical voices from feminist philosophy to lesbian philosophy to Native American philosophy, is a rich and complex picture of varied relationships to and in philosophy and thus, a richer and deeper portrait of philosophy. Finally, a book in which marginalized philosophers, present and future, can and will find themselves! -- Donna-Dale L. Marcano, Trinity College\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Yancy and the contributors of Philosophy in Multiple Voices present clearly-written, experientially rooted essays whose power and resonance derives in large measure from being part of an ensemble. The benefit to scholars and especially students is incalculable. -- Vincent Colapietro, Pennsylvania State University\u003cbr\u003eThis collection should be of great value to philosophers interested in diversity issues....The collection raises helpful questions....Philosophy in Multiple Voices is a valuable addition to the philosophical literature on diversity and thanks are owed to George Yancy for producing this collection. * APA Newsletter on Feminism and Philosophy, Fall 2008 *\u003cbr\u003eYancy has provided a valuable set of readings in this philosophical collection.
