The Cambridge Companion to Gadamer (Cambridge Companions to Philosophy) Review

Professor Dostal has assembled a useful collection of essays for this volume. The best contributions are by Jean Grondin (shrewd and astute, as always) and Fred Lawrence and someone named Gunter Figal.Unfortunately, Richard J. Bernstein's piece on Gadamer/Habermas/Derrida is a bit thin, while J.M. Baker Jr.'s essay on lyric poetry seems endless.Professor Dostal's essay on Gadamer and Heidegger (always a thorny subject) is especially good.Recommended.
