Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit can be read from many points of view. Bridges chooses not just a skeptical approach but an agnostic one. He . . . calls into question not only Hegel's solution but also the way he poses the problem. It is hard to imagine a more provocative examination of the Phenomenology of Spirit. --Ingolf U. Dalferth, Claremont Graduate University, emeritus This short but carefully crafted volume . . . focuses on Hegel and our inability to know (agnostic) the difference between external objects and the subjective concepts by which we understand them (arbitrary vs. nonarbitrary). Bridges delves beyond a mere historical investigation of philosophy to include anthropological studies on perception, and reflects on the assumptions of the double-blind randomized clinical trial (placebo). --T. L. Brink, Crafton Hills College Andrew Lee Bridges's investigation into the history of mind--be it cosmic, human, or divine--with skeptical discoveries in Hegel's work of its arbitrariness in relation to any universal direction or purpose and the agnosticism that follows . . . is an important study in universal relativism. --Roland Faber, Claremont School of Theology
