"Understanding Phenomenology strikes a masterful balance in tone and content, combining accessibility and sophistication, generality and subtlety, exposition and criticism. It is a superb text - the best introduction to phenomenology available in English." - Taylor Carman, Barnard College, Columbia University "There is no book in print today that I know of that gives an accessible but responsible overview of the practice of phenomenology from Husserl to Merleau-Ponty. Understanding Phenomenology does this job admirably, and it does more as well - essential reading for undergraduate classes in phenomenology." - Sean Kelly, Princeton University "I enjoyed reading Cerbone's book and would certainly recommend it to my students as a jargon-free and reliable account of the central figures in phenomenology." - Dermot Moran, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
