Light shelfwear. ; "Leszek Kolakowski's "Husserl and the Search for Certitude" is a concise, yet profound exploration of Edmund Husserl's philosophical quest for a foundation of absolute certainty in knowledge. Kolakowski, one of the leading philosophers of the 20th century, adeptly navigates through Husserl's complex theories, presenting them in an accessible manner while also offering critical insights into their implications and limitations. The book delves into Husserl's phenomenology, an approach that seeks to explore the structures of consciousness and the essence of experience, free from assumptions about the external world. Kolakowski critically examines Husserl's attempt to establish a definitive ground for the sciences and knowledge in general, through a methodical suspension of belief in the external world, known as epoché or phenomenological reduction. Kolakowski's critique is both sympathetic and discerning, acknowledging Husserl's significant contributions to philosophy while also pointing out the challenges in his pursuit of absolute certitude. The author explores the tension between Husserl's aspirations for philosophical rigor and the inherent ambiguities of human experience, suggesting that the search for certitude may ultimately be an elusive goal. "Leszek Kolakowski's "Husserl and the Search for Certitude" is not just an insightful examination of Husserl's work; it also reflects on the broader philosophical endeavors to understand the foundations of knowledge and reality. This book is a valuable read for anyone interested in phenomenology, the philosophy of science, and the enduring human quest to comprehend the world with certainty. Kolakowski's lucid writing and analytical depth make this work a significant contribution to the study of one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. ; Octavo; x, 84 pages.
