2011. Routledge GuideBook to Merleau-Ponty and the Phenomenology of Perception. London: Routledge. (Written by me).
A guide to Merleau-Ponty’s Phenomenology of Perception. Maurice Merleau-Ponty is one of my favourite philosophers. He lived and worked in Paris, and was friends with Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre. He writes in a tradition that is sometimes called Existential-Phenomenology. It takes seriously the existentialist idea that the starting point for all philosophy has to be our here-and-now existence, then uses ideas from phenomenology to try to understand this. Merleau-Ponty tried to do justice to the profound ways that we are embodied. To understand who we are, we need to pay careful attention to the nature of perception and habit. He offers a rich and complex theory of these phenomena.
