Rezensionen

"An excellent book. Written in an inviting, jargon-free style, it offers sophisticated argumentation and illuminating commentary on the central philosophical issues at stake in Phenomenology of Perception, without descending into technicalities of interest only to specialists." - Taylor Carman, Barnard College, USA

"Komarine Romdenh-Romluc offers an extremely lucid account of Merleau-Ponty's landmark work, Phenomenology of Perception. She reconstructs Merleau-Ponty's arguments in an elegant and readily intelligible fashion, and deals clearly and coherently with many of the most difficult aspects his work." - Mark Wrathall, University of California, Riverside, USA
