Dr. Brigitte Cypress' was a professor of mine when I was studying for my PhD in Nursing at the Graduate Center City University of New York. Her passion for philosophy and phenomenological research was evident then, and it shows in her scholarly works. Her vast knowledge and expertise of phenomenological research makes her an authority in this method. Great job Dr. Cypress!

Dr. Brigitte Cypress is a mentor and educator to PhD students. When I embarked on using phenomenology as the philosophical approach for my dissertation, I called upon her scholarly expertise, and I am honored to have her on my committee. She is an expert when it comes to deciphering and explaining the nuances between all of the different philosophical and phenomenological paradigms, which this textbook so aptly covers.

Dr. Cypress established my foundation as a PhD student and piqued my interest in philosophy and using phenomenology to answer my research question. She was my first professor when I commenced my PhD journey at Pace University. Thank you, Dr Cypress, for all of your patience as I stumble through learning the complicated material, finding my way as a scholar, and for writing this book.
