“This collection of essay is an invaluable guide to Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit for graduate students and Hegel Scholars.  As well as being a lucid and detailed commentary on the entire of the Phenomenology of 1807, it also offers original contributions, which on certain occasions challenge traditional interpretations or the received view.”  (Evangelia Sembou, The Owl of Minerva, 1 November 2012)

"This collection reunites the leading experts on Hegel's philosophy who systematically address key issues in the notoriously difficult Phenomenology of Spirit. In every chapter the authors accompany the unfolding of Hegel's argument and guide the reader through the intricacies of dialectical transitions." (CHOICE, August 2009) "A very impressive collection of essays by some of the most acute readers working on Hegel today. ... The essays in this volume provide many accessible points of entry into Hegel's thought. Scholars and teachers of Hegel's most rewarding and perplexing work should be grateful." (Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, December 2009)
