"The author has availed himself of hitherto unpublished manuscripts at the Husserl archives in Belgium, and has used those texts in an effort to finish Husserl's own case that phenomenology can meaningfully contribute to the discussion of others, of freedom, and of our fellowship. The resulting treatment of the problem of intersubjectivity is remarkably sympathetic to Husserlian thought and intelligently made." — Dennis J. Schmidt, State University of New York at Binghamton
