This book is a work of living philosophy. Grounded in the work one of our era’s great thinkers, it shows us how Lewis R. Gordon addresses the triumphs and failures of previous generations of philosophers, how today’s philosophers are extending his work, and it provides the contours of a rigorous philosophy that can guide us towards a bright future.
