Reviews
"This volume as a whole does a fine job in discussing these. And, unlike the volume on Hegel, this one can be used by students and readers new to Schopenhauer; this will be a good companion." ( Reference Reviews , 26 August 2012) "The essays uniformly succeed in engaging their topics in ways that will make them accessible to intermediate undergraduates but also interest graduate students and scholars. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Intermediate to advanced undergraduates and above." ( Choice , 1 September 2012)
