Logical Investigations Volume 1 / Edition 1

by Edmund Husserl, Dermot Moran, J.N. Findlay

Overview

Edmund Husserl is the founder of phenomenology and the Logical Investigations is his most famous work. It had a decisive impact on twentieth century philosophy and is one of few works to have influenced both continental and analytic philosophy.
This is the first time both volumes have been available in paperback. They include a new introduction by Dermot Moran, placing the Investigations in historical context and bringing out their contemporary philosophical importance.
These editions include a new preface by Sir Michael Dummett.

Editorial Reviews

"These two paperback editions of Husserl's "Logical Investigations... are most welcome... Adding to the attractiveness of these editions are their prefaces and introductions... Dummett notes the importance and potential of the work, given its timely appearance prior to the divide between analytic and phenomenological traditions. Moran's substantial introduction is richly documented (the footnotes are a treasure trove) and lucidly written."
-Daniel Dahlstrom, "Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, April 11, 2002
