"This is an impressive collection of papers, covering the Phenomenology in sequence. The authors provide much enlightenment on this difficult text, often shedding new light on well known problems of interpretation and philosophical understanding.

"This is an invaluable resource for anyone attempting to come to terms with Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. The reader of Hegel's classic work is supposed to journey through a series of shapes of consciousness and spirit in a way that is not meant to be governed by some single, mechanically imposed, overarching point of view. By having a series of leading Hegel "guides" each illuminate one of the stages of the journey, The Blackwell Guide is able to capture the type of organic transitioning that characterizes the work itself." Paul Redding, University of Sydney
