Synopsis

These autobiographical reflections by a major contemporary philosopher offer an enjoyable and enlightening tour not only of his own intellectual development but of the rich and fruitful collaboration of minds during a rich period in German cultural history.

Review

" This wonderful memoir of a philosophical life spans four regimes in Germany and includes friendships or scholarly relations with most of Germany's great and near-great 20th-century philosophers... The writing is clean and simple, and the book is filled with warm, insightful characterizations and marked by the pathos of a profoundly decent German life." -- "Library Journal"
