"An anthology of considerable quality... On Max Horkheimeris an anthology of more than historical interest. Horkheimer wasa thinker who asked, even when he failed adequately to answer,questions concerning the intellectual credentials and moral statusof a social theory that aspires to be critical as well asinterpretive. These are questions that have lost none of theirrelevance... Horkheimer remains a figure to be reckoned with." David Levy, Times Higher Education Supplement
