For more than three decades he has been jolting American academicians out of their settled ways of thinking and writing with a series of brilliant, provocative, and original studies of phenomena of elemental importance. As the contributors to this volume remind us, Lingis has impressed on us a renewed sense of our impassioned and embodied existence and he has taught an entire generation of American philosophers how to think for themselves while maintaining a dialogue with the great masters of European philosophy. -- John D.
