The Essays: Twenty-Sixth Post (Final Thougths)
I’m really not sure why any of the information in the appendices was included in this book. I’m sure it was all related somehow, but John Pitcher, the editor, made no effort whatever to explain how! I’m really not impressed with him as an editor. He doesn’t explain most of his inclusions, as if he assumes his readers will just understand them, but at the same time his footnotes seem to indicate that he thinks his readers won’t understand basic words. And his documentation is extremely uneven (”slight alterations to the text” means what exactly?). It’s quite frustrating!
