Rezensionen

"....In this exploration of four of Sartre's works, Catalano (emer., Kean Univ. of New Jersey) argues that the themes of the later works are consistent with the earlier work, serving to further illustrate how freedom is limited by that of others.... this volume will serve as an insightful introduction to the themes of Sartre's major works.... Recommended...."
