Description

"Recognition, though it figures profoundly in our understanding of objects and persons, identity and ideas, has never before been the subject of a single, sustained philosophical inquiry. This work, by one of contemporary philosophy's most distinguished voices, pursues recognition through its various philosophical guises and meanings - and, through the "course of recognition," seeks to develop nothing less than a proper hermeneutics of mutual recognition."--Jacket.
