Reviews

"…a rich phenomenological exploration of the nature of embodied sociality … this is a very engaging book for philosophers as well as an accessible one for educated readers, especially students across disciplines seeking an introduction to phenomenological thought and practice." — Symposium

"The Other in Perception succeeds in bearing out the central idea that 'we are always dealing with other people, whether we notice this explicitly or not.' It effectively blends phenomenology and cognitive science to establish that reality is deeply social, and thus equally a matter of ontology and ethics. This social ontology opens up multiple avenues for further inquiry." — Hypatia Reviews Online

"…a philosophically rich text." — Phenomenological Reviews
