Recensioner i media

"New works on Sartre call for a justification. For Katherine J. Morris's book there are several, from its limpid and lively style to its sympathetic elaboration of insights that Sartre often left undeveloped. Especially rewarding is her emphasis on Sartre's conception of his philosophical project which, Morris skilfully argues, bears comparison with Wittgenstein's picture of philosophy as 'therapy'."David Cooper, Northern Michigan University“Well-written … and skillful … .Its probing and bridging of the analytic- Continental "gap" … [is] perhaps its greatest single contribution to ongoing philosophical discussion.” Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
