Reviews

Kennedy's exposition of Bachelard's material ontology is exemplary, lucid, and philosophically committed. [...] Having begun the work of turning the tide of Bachelard's reception in the English speaking world, Kennedy's book will remain an essential work for some time to come. (Dylan Trigg, Continental Philosophy Review 45, 2012)
