Reviews
For those of us-and we are many-who have had the great fortune to know Michael Weinstein as a mentor, a teacher, a confident, a fellow provocateur, a passionate thought-wanderer, a colleague, a cultural bricoleur, a lover of philosophical texts, and a friend, this volume is at once touching, enthralling, thought-provoking, energizing, and a deeply pleasurable read. For everyone with a genuine passion for American political, aesthetic, visual, and digital thought, Oprisko and Rubenstein's text exposes one to the mind/life/persona(s) of one of the most admirable thinkers of the last fifty years; it invites everyone to ride along with Weinstein's unique and compelling philosophy of critical vitalism. -Francois Debrix, Professor of Political Science and Director of the ASPECT program, Virginia Tech
