Reviews
“…Bonner’s decision to leave critical evaluation for another occasion appears to have been a prudent one. The result is a guide to Llull’s Art and logic unlikely to be surpassed for a long time…. Special features include eight color illustrations, thirty black-and-white illustrations, and appendices on Martin Gardner’s flawed reading of Llull and a chronological list of Llull’s works.”
John R. Welch, Journal of the History of Philosophy 47:2, April 2009
"...ein wichtiger Beitrag für das Verständnis von Lulls Werk ... es [bietet] einen guten Einstieg in den Kern seiner komplizierten Methodiek..."

“...El Sr. Bonner ha escrit un llibre decisiu per a la comprensió de l’obra de Ramon Llull...”

"...Il sistema logico-argomentativo di Lullo trova nel libro di Bonner una guida efficace ed originale, in grado di introdurre senza pregiudizi e senza forzature il lettore a una delle figure meno conformiste del pensiero medievale, una guida che, davanti al complesso marchingegno dell’Arte e della logica lulliane, ci evita la fine di chi, per parafrasare le parole dell’autore, talvolta si lamenta che un calcolatore non funziona, e semplicemente non ha letto il manuale di istruzioni."
