Ambitious, enthralling ... this is a wonderful book -- Laura Hackett * The Sunday Times * The ceaseless intellectual questing of all four makes for fascinating reading -- Caroline Moorehead * Guardian * Illuminates the times through which these philosophers developed their ideas - and vice versa - often drawing poignant parallels and discontinuities between the women -- Stuart Jeffries * Observer * Eilenberger’s goal is to show that continental disorder and the threat of violence can inspire originality of thought, and he does so compellingly in this ambitious intellectual history -- Barney Horner * New Statesman *
