Читать книгу An Eye for An I - Robert Spillane - Страница 6

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This book owes its existence to my having been invited by the Art Gallery Society of New South Wales in Sydney to deliver a series of lectures, The Mind’s Eye: An Introduction to Philosophy. I should like to thank Louise O’Halloran, whose idea it was to have me deliver the lectures, and her colleagues who ably supported me: Craig Brush, Fran Hellier, Vanessa Herlihy, Michelle Munro, Ian Shadwell and Judith White.

I sincerely thank Lenore Grunsell for allowing me to work from the unpublished lecture notes of her late husband and my friend, John Martin, whose ideas and arguments are sprinkled liberally throughout the pages of this book, and especially the first half of Chapter 9.

Once again the University of New South Wales Press has kindly allowed me to use material from Personality and Performance: Foundations of Managerial Psychology coauthored with John Martin.

Thanks are also due to Michelle Anderson who published the first edition of this book and several thereafter.

I am especially grateful to Katherine Owen for encouraging me to re-write and agreeing to publish a substantially revised edition of An Eye for an I.
