This is a complete introduction and systematic discussion of Hegel's system written by competent and renowned Hegel scholars from many countries. The chapters treat each part of the system - Phenomenology, Logic, Philosophy of Nature and Spirit, State, Art and Religion - in a lucid and truly enlightening way. Hegel's revolutionary insights are shown to be of high relevance for many modern questions in epistemology and ontology, rational theology or social philosophy. Clearly among the best and most helpful introductions and discussions of Hegel ever published. -- Ludwig Siep, Professor at Westfalische Wilhelms-Universitat Munster, Germany An artfully-organized and exceptionally well-chosen collection of essays by leading North American and European experts in the field. An ideal source and reliable guide for anyone undertaking a study of "the whole Hegel." -- Dan Breazeale, Professor of Philosophy at University of Kentucky, USA This is a fine collection of essays by first rate scholars from eight different countries and an impressively wide range of philosophical backgrounds. The essays, which are both scholarly and accessible, shed valuable light on Hegel's system, important themes running through this system (such as negation and mediation), the challenging forms of argument deployed by Hegel, and his extraordinarily rich influence on subsequent generations. This immensely informative and thought-provoking collection will be welcomed by students and specialists alike. -- Stephen Houlgate, Professor in the Department of Philosophy, University of Warwick, UK Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates through researchers/faculty. -- M. Donougho, emeritus, University of South Carolina-Columbia CHOICE ...an exquisitely compiled collection of intellectually challenging essays on Hegelian philosophy. It is a thoroughgoing overview of a difficult author, one that may be enjoyed more by those familiar with Hegelian philosophy than those who seek an entry point to Hegel. -- Thomas Klikauer, University of Western Sydney Philosophy in Review
