Reviews for Empathy in the Context of Philosophy
'[Agosta] succeeds in convincing the reader that empathy is indeed a topic which is worthy of renewed attention as it migrates from 'the periphery of ethics, aesthetics, and theory of the mind to a key place in establishing and maintaining the integrity and emotional equilibrium of dynamic interrelations with other individuals'.' - The Journal of Consciousness Studies
