This is the first book-length examination of the work of an important contemporary thinker in the continental tradition, William Desmond.

The present volume contains essays on Desmond's work both by emerging scholars and by well-established thinkers. It also contains a specially written essay on the practices of philosophy by Desmond himself.…mehr
