Media Reviews
While alerting students to the wide range of controversies regarding almost any topic in Hegel's complex masterpiece, Stern charts a clear and interesting course through Hegel's text, highlighting important methodological and thematic continuities universal, particular, and individual aspects. Stern's interpretation is distinctive, and yet accessible, useful, and stimulating for students and professionals alike. He quotes and clarifies a good selection of passages which would otherwise puzzle students. His bibliography provides useful references for both beginning and advanced students. Recent Hegel scholarship has made significant advances. In this context, Stern's new introduction is very welcome indeed.
