"Dan Zahavi's latest book on Husserl has many merits. Not only does it offer a clear, sharp, and detailed reconstruction of the Husserlian phenomenological project, but it also stands out for its ambitious aim of highlighting the usefulness of a sound reading of historical texts to address theoretical questions....Zahavi's reconstruction of Husserl's philosophy succeeds in showing not only the complexity and richness of Husserl's project, but also the philosophical viability and relevance of his transcendental approach" -- Rosario Croce, Philosophical Inquiries

"...all of the advantages of Zahavi's excellent readings of Husserl and the positions he takes in Husserl's Legacy regarding the continued importance and relevance of phenomenology are preserved in this account. And for those readings and positions-with their exceptional clarity and importance-we are indebted and grateful." -- John J. Drummond, Fordham University, Husserl Studies

"Over the past twenty-five years, Dan Zahavi has established himself as a foremost interpreter of Edmund Husserl's phenomenology and a leading contributor to the development of contemporary phenomenology. He is renowned for showing that phenomenology is a viable and valuable alternative for addressing contemporary controversies in the philosophy of mind, the cognitive sciences, and social ontology and epistemology. Both facets of his work are on display in Husserl's Legacy." -- John Drummond, Husserl Studies

"Clear, well-informed, and persuasive." -- Tom Nenon, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

"Zahavi's latest book, Husserl's Legacy, is a major achievement" -- Joona Taipale, ProtoSociology

"Dan Zahavi has written an observant and sympathetic account of Husserl's philosophy viewed in a contemporary context." -- D.W. Smith, European Journal of Philosophy
