Reviews
'This collection presents new and promising interpretations of Henri Bergson, revealing the reach of his thought into political science, sociology, aesthetics, and religious studies. Academic readers across the humanities and social sciences will find them accessible and provocative.' Michael Kelly, University of San Diego 'In its choice of the most innovative topics in research on Bergson, this book presents an original and at the same time very rich spectrum of the last twenty years of research ... Even though they draw on the most canonical texts, the various contributions present highly original interpretations of Bergson's oeuvre and highlight its enduring fertility.' Societe des Amis de Bergson Newsletter 'This collection is extremely thought-provoking and an excellent resource for scholars as well as students already familiar with his work.' Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
