Produktbeschreibung

Jürgen Habermas is one of the most important German philosophers and social theorists of the 20th century. His work has been compared in scope with Max Weber's and in philosophical breadth to that of Kant and Hegel. This much-needed introduction engages with the full range of Habermas's philosophical work, and is a superb guide for anyone coming to his work for the first time.
