Although generally ignored in this country, Merleau-Ponty is one of
the most influential and gifted philosophers to emerge from the
holocaust of World War II. Thanks to this series, some of his works
are now appearing for the first time in English translation."
—Choice
"For the English-speaking psychologist who is interested generally
in phenomenological psychology and in Merleau-Ponty's philosophy
and conception of the 'behavioral' sciences, this translation must
be considered an indispensable work." —Review of Existential
Psychology and Psychiatry
