Reviews
"By a wide margin the most lucid study of Mead's thought ever published, this book should go far toward convincing those who still doubt that Mead is to be counted among America's most important philosophers." -- Peter H. Hare, editor, Transactions of the C.S. Peirce Society "One of the most reliable and valuable contributions to a better understanding of a long-neglected thinker." Hans Joas, Freie Universitat Berlin
