Contemporary Continental Thought by Stephen Daniel

Contemporary Continental Thought gives one central reference that brings together topics from many sources. This collection of readings provides a sense of the variety and depth of the contemporary thinker's positions. It is accessible and timely, with excellent selections that address a variety of issues. KEY TOPICS: This anthology on recent continental philosophy is unique because it brings together in one volume: 1) an overview of critical theory, structuralism, French feminism, deconstruction, poststructuralism, postcolonialism, and postmodernism; 2) brief introductions to (and representative and accessible selections by) twenty important figures along with their photographs; and 3) commentary on the more than the thirty included readings. MARKET: This book is the only one of its kind on the market, and is interesting reading for anyone involved or interested in contemporary commentary and thought.

"This is a well conceived volumeThe editor (Stephen Daniel) is judicious and well advised in his selections of texts." - Dennis J. Schmidt, Pennsylvania State University "... I can certainly say, without any hesitations or reservations that this text meets a need, for there is nothing I know of that offers what this offers... its selections approach current continental philosophy starting from critical social theory, and continue to highlight the social-political contributions. This is a unique conceptualization among textbooks." - David Michael Levin, Northwestern University "I feel that Stephen Daniel's text is essentially a "first", a long-needed effort to gather together these sources in Contemporary Philosophy... this text is ambitious and well needed. It fills a -gap in the textbook field, and the author demonstrates a true command of the material within the anthology." - David Stegall, Clemson University
