"…it presents a variety of diverging perspectives … [and] does an excellent job of representing the colloquy of the International Merleau-Ponty Circle." — International Studies in Philosophy"Olkowski and Morley gather in one volume some of the freshest and creative voices among contemporary Merleau-Ponty scholars. A wide range of thinkers (Schelling, Freud, James, Heidegger, Levinas, Butler, Irigaray, Derrida, Lacan, etc.) and integrated themes (feminism, chaos theory, intersubjectivity, the unconscious, etc.) are represented here. This work would be useful as collateral reading for a variety of courses in contemporary continental philosophy." — Patrick Burke, Seattle University
