A monumental undertaking . . . the quality of the essays is consistently very high: well-informed about the sources and the predominant issues, clearly written and well-organized with a minimum of jargon and often with helpful examples. . . . The overall result is a very informative and comprehensive overview of the prehistory and the history of phenomenology in Europe during the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first century.
