A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

In addition, he is the author of three other books on Buber, editor, translator, and introducer of a dozen of Buber's works, and principal editor of The Philosophy of Martin Buber volume of The Library of Living Philosophers. He is Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies, Philosophy, and Comparative Literature at San Diego State University and Co-Director of the Institute for Dialogical Psychotherapy.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The specific focus of this book is 'dialogue' as the foundation of and integrating factor in the human sciences, using dialogue in the special sense which Buber has made famous: mutuality, presentness, openness, meeting the other in his or her uniqueness and not just as content for one's own thought categories, and knowing as deriving in the first instance from mutual contact rather than knowledge of a subject about an object.
