"There is perhaps no better expositor of Gadamer's philosophical work than Jean Grondin. Here, he does a wonderful job of laying out all of the key themes of Truth and Method, disentangling them, but never severing their connections ... and situating Gadamer's concerns in the context of traditional philosophical issues. I would place Grondin's book first on the list as an aid to taking up Gadamer." - Dennis Schmidt, Pennsylvania State University
