Reviews

Although it is rigorously grounded in the Continental tradition, this is a strikingly original philosophical work. It both deepens our reception of that tradition and draws out its ethical ramifications in challenging new directions. -- Jason Wirth, Seattle University


Although it is rigorously grounded in the Continental tradition, this is a strikingly original philosophical work. It both deepens our reception of that tradition and draws out its ethical ramifications in challenging new directions. -- Jason Wirth, Seattle University Thinking through the intimate entanglement of life and death, the ways change is itself a constant attribute of this thanato-vitalism, and the constitutive trouble of external social values, Apple Igrek develops a novel and much-needed methodology for approaching agonistic social relations. Given the world we’re in, and the world before us, the book could not be more timely. -- Keith P. Feldman, University of California, Berkeley
