'A Truer Liberty makes two welcome contributions to Weil studies: it presents the most thorough analysis to date of Weil’s affinities with and divergences from Marxism, and―more importantly―it succeeds in bringing Weil to life as a political theorist whose writings provide some bracing alternatives to the ideological forces that dominate twentieth-century thought ... Blum and Seidler not only inaugurate a new direction in Weil studies; they also show us why her political theorizing deserves serious and more respectful attention than it has hitherto received.' - The Review of Politics
