Rational Animals The Teleological Roots of Intentionality Mark Okrent “What identifies ‘Continental philosophy’ at its best nowadays is not textual references or argumentative style, but substantive thematic continuities and argumentative engagement. In these terms, Rational Animals is at the forefront of contemporary Continental philosophy, and indeed, will be the most important book published in this area in some time.”— Joseph Rouse, Wesleyan University 248 pages, cloth $49.95, paper $24.95

Topologies of the Flesh A Multidimensional Exploration of the Lifeworld Steven M. Rosen “Topologies of the Flesh is a remarkable book, and not least from the fact that its passion could be sustained so steadily to the very end. . . . This is a challenging book that makes strong demands on the reader to an exciting degree.”—Arnold Berleant 360 pages, illus., cloth $59.95, sale $42

Merleau-Ponty and Derrida Intertwining Embodiment and Alterity Jack Reynolds “It is remarkable that the relation between Merleau-Ponty and Derrida, two of the seminal thinkers of the twentieth century, has received so little attention.

The purpose of The Opening of Hegel’s Science of Logic is to dispel the myths that surround the Logic and to show that Hegel’s unjustly neglected text is a work of extraordinary subtlety and insight. Edmund Husserl’s Phenomenology by Joseph J. Kockelmans

978-1-55753-050-9: Paperback ~ 6x9 ~ 384 pgs. { $21.95 } 978-1-55753-049-3: Hardback ~ 6x9 ~ 350 pgs. { $29.95 } Joseph J. Kockelmans provides the reader with a biographical sketch and an overview of the salient features of Husserl’s thought. Kockelmans focuses on Husserl’s most Important effort to articulate the aims of phenomenology for a more general audience. Included are Husserl’s text -- in the original German and in English translation on facing pages -- a synop- sis, and an extensive commentary that relates Husserl’s work as a whole to the essay for the Encyclopedia. Plato’s Phaedrus The Philosophy of Love by Graeme Nicholson 978-1-55753-119-3: Paperback ~ 6x9 ~ 248 pgs. { $19.95 } 978-1-55753-118-6: Hardback ~ 6x9 ~ 248 pgs. { $29.95 } The Pbaedrus lies at the heart of Plato’s work, and the topics it discusses are central to his thought. In its treatment of the topics of the soul, the ideas and love, it is closely tied to the other dialogues of Plato’s “middle period,” the Pbaedo, the Symposium, and the Republic.

Reinterpreting Modern Culture An Introduction to Friedrich Nietzsche’s Philosophy by Paul J.M. van Tongeren 978-1-55753-157-5: Paperback ~ 6x9 ~ 336 pgs. { $19.95 } 978-1-55753-156-8: Hardback ~ 6x9 ~ 336 pgs. { $29.95 } Friedrich Nietzsche considers it his task to make a diagnosis of the culture of his age, to point to the latent or patent diseases, but also to the possibilities to overcome them. His diagnosis, prognosis, and prescriptions implied an overcoming of traditional interpretation of what is going on in the main domains of culture: knowledge, morality, religion, and art.

This book presents Nietzsche’s thoughts on knowledge and reality, on morality and politics, and on religion. Preceding these main dialogues is an introduction on the art of reading Nietzsche’s texts and on his art of writing.
