This is a wonderful book. It is hard to overpraise it. It is learned, wise, deep, and subtle, and for in my view it is substantially right. It is also a marvelously human and humane book, taking us into the heart of human emotion and feeling and exploring their shape with great sympathy and skill.
   --Simon Blackburn, Ethics

Every so often, though not often enough, a philosophical book is written that addresses a deep problem with profound insight, subtle argumentation and captivating style. Allan Gibbard's Wise Chioces, Apt Feelings: A Theory of Normative Judgment is such a book. It is an important book; it is a beautiful book.
   --Donald Hubin, Philosophical Quarterly

A very distinguished book; rich in insights and written with a terse elegance that makes for wonderful clarity and ease of reading.
   --John McDowell, University of Pittsburgh
