The threat of solipcism nagged Husserl. The question of the status of others occupied him during the last years of his life and remained a question that seemed to challenge the foundation of his life's work. This book offers new answers to this persistent philosophical question by defining the question in specifically Husserlian terms and by means of a careful examination of Husserl's later texts, including the unpublished Nachlass.
"The author has availed himself of hitherto unpublished manuscripts at the Husserl archives in Belgium, and has used those texts in an effort to finish Husserl's own case that phenomenology can meaningfully contribute to the discussion of others, of freedom, and of our fellowship. The resulting treatment of the problem of intersubjectivity is remarkably sympathetic to Husserlian thought and intelligently made." — Dennis J. Schmidt, State University of New York at Binghamton
