Omschrijving
Lampert also includes valuable counter-points to the continental tradition by including analytic philosophy … and political thinkers from both sides of the political spectrum, such as Schmitt and Habermas. This is therefore a rich and rewarding book, as much for those interpretations as for the overall thesis.

Jay Lampert has written a provocative book on the temporality of decisions. He intertwines the book’s innovative insight with a masterly and clear treatment of major continental and analytic thinkers as well as with discussions of temporal logic, decision theory, quantum physics, and the Chinese game of Go. Lampert also considers the vital implications of his thesis for ethical responsibility, especially for an age in which fundamentalisms strive to crowd out more judicious and imaginative thought. It’s a must read for scholars and theoreticians working on the relation between decision and time and will be of great interest to those concerned more generally with contemporary continental philosophy.
Jay Lampert is Professor of Philosophy at Duquesne University, USA. His previous books include Simultaneity and Delay: A Dialectical Theory of Staggered Time (Continuum, 2012) and Deleuze and Guattari’s Philosophy of History (Continuum, 2006).
