"This collection offers an accessible assemblage of Richard Shusterman's prolific philosophical, critical, and interpretive essays, prefaced by a very illuminating interpretative essay by Crispin Sartwell that conveys the coherence and power of Shusterman's larger project of cultivating embodied thinking and self-reflective living. The ever-expanding breadth and depth of Shusterman's oeuvre and wide transdisciplinary influence create a need for The Critical Shusterman, which will be a boon to anyone who has encountered one of the many axes of his multipronged body of work." — Chris Voparil, Lynn University
