Reviews
'The delicate but … sure-footed sensibility and psychological penetration of the author … wins from a thoroughly rigorous philosophical analysis a host of ideas and suggestions for a philosophy of life and even for psychology itself - a rare combination.' - Brian McGuinness
'This vast project shows a rare mastery in the domain of linguistic philosophy and especially in the area of encounter between analytic philosophy and hermeneutics. ' - Paul Ricoeur, University of Chicago
