"[This] book is recommended for anyone interested in a new reading of Levinas as well as the benefit of applying pragmatism to phenomenology."—American Journal of Theology and Philosophy "Craig's book is most welcome, as it puts James into conversation with one of the most important continental (post-)phenomenological thinkers of the twentieth century, Emmanuel Levinas. These two philosophers might seem to be very different, and their divergences in writing styles, for instance, cannot be denied; yet, Craig shows convincingly that they do share a number of important ideas, many of which should make us rethink the very nature of ethics (and philosophy)."—Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society "Thoughtful, imaginative, and probing."—Vincent Colapietro, Pennsylvania State University "In bringing together the work of Levinas and William James, it opens a new discussion in the scholarship of both."—John Lysaker, Emory University
