[edit] Content change

I recently made some fairly drastic changes to this article. I added information on conceptual analysis, since it's so prominent in the method of analytic philosophy. I also then changed the direction and content of the article a bit. I hope it doesn't step on anyone's feet. The article was quite neglected and off topic. Thus, I removed the section about arguments--it was okay, it just wasn't really about analysis in philosophy. "Analysis" is not really a blanket term for the techniques used in philosophy. Rather, it's a term for the technique most prominently used in (analytic) philosophy. --Jaymay 21:13, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

I added some stuff recently, but it could still use expanding--especially the part on the controversy. This is a big topic in philosophy, especially right now. There's a lot to say and that's been said about it. --Jaymay 21:13, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
