Description

This lucid introduction to Hegel's thought articulates the conceptual unity of the forbiddingly difficult Phenomenology within it. A distillation of the author's magisterial Hegel's Ladder, Hegel : Phenomenology and System is accessible to beginning students and will be found stimulating by the more advanced.

Reviews

This is an incredibly rich and provocative book for such a slim volume, and it will no doubt become a standard accompaniment to many classes on the Phenomenology , a kind of short, lucid skeleton key to the whole book.--Terry Pinkard, Georgetown University
Out of his magisterial scholarship Harris gives us three gifts in a surprisingly small package. First there is a lucid account of what Hegel's philosophical goal is. Then there is a running summary of the Phenomenology . . . . Finally, we get a concise account of what it all means, Harris's view of the interrelationships and relative significance of the various parts of the system. --Merold Westphal, Fordham University
