Review

With this important treatise on the contemporary philosophy of interpretation, Schrag takes his stand at the leading edge of hermeneutic discussion Highly recommended. -- Choice Schrag marvelously exemplifies and practices the ideal of philosophy as a reflective overcoming of one-sidedness His book is well worth reading for an up-to-date, state of the art discussion of the most fundamental issues in the debate between modernism and post-modernism. -- Journal of the British Society for Phenemenology Calvin O Schrag is one of those remarkable writers who can draw widely from the diverse and complex work of contemporary philosophy, and do so without sacrificing detailed interpretation. -- International Studies in Philosophy The presentation is as vigilant and original as it is lucid. -- Phenomenological Inquiry
