Rezensionen

'Joel Smith's Experiencing Phenomenology is the best introduction to phenomenology that I know. Exceptionally lucid, historically sensitive and philosophically rich, this book deserves to become a classic. I recommend it enthusiastically for students and for experts too.' - Tim Crane, University of Cambridge, UK

'An excellent book, which embeds its discussion of phenomenology within lively contemporary debates in philosophy of mind and philosophy of psychology. Well-conceived and well-executed, it is peppered with good examples to illustrate key principles, and steers clear of the dense, forbidding jargon that mars so much writing in phenomenology. Quite an accomplishment!' - Wayne Martin, University of Essex, UK

'An excellent, stimulating, systematic and high-level introduction to phenomenology. It is historically informed and philosophically lucid with just the right balance of exposition and argument. Philosophers of mind and cognitive scientists wondering what insights the phenomenological tradition might have to offer them should look no further. Highly recommended.' - Kenneth Williford, University of Texas at Arlington, USA

'The best introduction to phenomenology that I know. Joel Smith comprehensively explains the central topics of the movement and the dialogues between the great philosophers within it, and does so with sympathy, highly intelligent critical discussion, and outstanding clarity. This will be the standard introduction for many years to come.' - Paul Snowdon, University College London, UK
