Doing Philosophy Personally by Dwayne A Tunstall
Gabriel Marcel's reflective method is animated by his extraphilosophical commitment to battle the ever-present threat of dehumanization in late Western modernity. Unfortunately, Marcel neglected to examine what is perhaps the most prevalent threat of dehumanization in Western modernity: antiblack racism. Without such an account, Marcel's reflective method is weakened because it cannot live up to its extraphilosophical commitment. Tunstall remedies this shortcoming in his eloquent new volume.-

In this remarkable book, Tunstall presents his reader with an insightful work of scholarship that integrates three distinct components: an extremely lucid account of Marcelian phenomenological metaphysics, an existentialist account of antiblack racism, and a powerful description of religious experience as seen through the lens of Africana philosophy and theologyThe result is a uniquely insightful work that offers a clear illumination of Marcel's work as well as its relevance for ongoing existentialist discourses on antiblack racism. -- -Terrance MacMullan Eastern Washington University ... well-researched, carefully written and cogently argued. -- -Michael L. Raposa Lehigh University
