Reviews

This book offers a good sample of the broad scope of Ricoeur's philosophy, his historical relevance and the possible future of his thinking. The collected essays all stand on their own ... resulting in an enriched view on both the influence on and interaction of different philosophical schools in Ricoeur's philosophy and between the different philosophical disciplines Ricoeur practiced. ... individual quality of the different essays in the book is outstanding, which makes the book already worth reading ... .
