Edmund Husserl's work is a cornerstone of Continental philosophy and the phenomenological tradition. Husserl: A Guide for the Perplexed addresses directly those major points of difficulty faced by students of Husserl and leads them expertly through the maze of complex ideas and language. The book builds up a comprehensive and authoritative overview of his thought and, more broadly, of phenomenology itself.  Divided into three parts, the text covers the central tenets of phenomenology, Husserl's work on consciousness, and key philosophical topics in Husserl, including psychologism, intersubjectivity, the lifeworld and the crisis of the sciences.
