Recenzii

"Cox's book is much more than an introduction to Sartre ... Satre: A Guide for the Perplexed is well worth reading and thinking about.  It would be useful in existentialism classes, history of philosophy classes, philosophy of mind, and in Great Books programs which focus on the chronological development of ideas in the Western world."
'Exceptionally clear and incisive ... Cox gives a tightly integrated account that penetrates deep into Sartre's thinking and provides a very accessible and perspicuous assessment ... This book will be hugely helpful to readers of Sartre and will, I believe, prove to be of lasting value.' Nicholas Dent, Professor (Emeritus) of Philosophy, University of Birmingham
"By discussing the limits of [Sartre's] arguments and assessing the criticisms levelled against him, the author maintains a balanced view and does not go along with the tendency of the 1980s and 1990s to dismiss his work as incoherent and insignificant.  Equally helpful are the examples from everyday life illustrating particularly difficult ideas, like the use of the pixelated image of an actor on screen to explain intentionality (p.17)."
