This book examines important movements of 20th century German philosophy, such as phenomenology, hermeneutics, and critical theory. With chapters on Husserl, Heidegger, Gadamer, Habermas, and Apel, Gorner discusses the philosophers and philosophies against the background of what is most distinctive in the German philosophical tradition.

Trade Review
