The Present Age: On the Death of Rebellion (Harperperennial Modern Thought)
&#8220;Those who would know Kierkegaard can do no better than to begin with this book. . . . InThe Present Agewe find the heart of Kierkagaard.&#8221; (Walter Kaufman, from the "Introduction")&#8220;The Present Ageshows just how original Kierkegaard was. He brilliantly foresaw the dangers of the lack of commitment and responsiblity in the Public Sphere. When everything is up for endless detached critical comment as on blogs and cable news, action finally becomes impossible.&#8221; (Hubert L. Dreyfus, University of California, Berkeley)&#8220;The first important existentialist.&#8221; (The Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
