Reviews for The Contemplative Self after Michel Henry: A Phenomenological Theology (Thresholds in Philosophy and Theology)
This book represents an extraordinarily impressive debut of a young philosophical theologian. It is marked by striking intelligence, formidable erudition, and precociously mature philosophical and theological judgment. . . . It is, of course, much more than a book on the late Henry, although it is certainly that, and by far the best book to appear in English.
