Reviews
"New readers and nonspecialists will find this the most convenient and accessible guide to Beauvoir available. Advanced students and specialists will find a conspectus of recent developments in the interpretation of Beauvoir." -- Italian Journal
‘The Cambridge Companion to Simone de Beauvoir achieves its goal of providing a comprehensive overview of the current state of Beauvoir scholarship in philosophy. The emphasis on the ethical aspects, as opposed to the political, has been long overdue and this collection of essays provides a satisfying redress.’ -- Philosophical Writings
‘… 14 incisive and complementary chapters on her life and work ¬ This is a timely and well-focused companion, avoiding critical extremes, and offering a useful bibliography to sources for students, teachers, and those in charge of collections in academic libraries.’ -- Reference Reviews
‘The Companions are designed for general readers and specialists alike and have acquired a reputation for combining broad, instructive overviews with incisive and original commentaries. In this respect, The Cambridge Companion to Simone de Beauvoir is a model of its kind.’ -- Cercles
