J. Dodd, Crisis and Reflection

Husserl's phenomenology of scientific reason

Kenneth Liberman

pp. 343-353

The senior philosophy professor at my university, a friend of 25 years, recently shared his complaint that phenomenology today seems to be stalled and is offering little beyond repeating old insights. He suggested that phenomenology is trapped within the analytic routines of its own conceptual universe, even while being trapped by one’s thinking is one of its principal topics. James Dodd’s new book on Husserl disproves such a thesis. Dodd not only reiterates the phenomenological project clearly, he engages a variety of phenomenological topics critical to an adequate historical understanding of modern science, and he carries out his own inquiries, extending Husserlian reflection into new areas.
