From this mix, she draws out something unexpected: an intelligible ethical argument, which she is able to situate in its place in continental philosophy. The work is a valuable contribution both to Weil studies and to ethical theory.\" -- -Karmen MacKendrick Le Moyne College \"Cha's book is elegant and eloquent, guiding the reader to think with the author, and with Weil, in a tour of complex theoretical terrain that addresses some of the most profound philosophical questions: How are we to live? Who are we? How do we relate to each other? The book brings Weil into conversations in contemporary continental ethics and invites future scholars to take Weil seriously.\" -- -Vincent W.
