"Here, at last, is the standard reference book on Maurice Blondel's
philosophy that we have been desperately waiting for. Absolutely
clear and accessible even to nonconnoisseurs, this book succeeds in
showing how much Blondel's thought is the conceptual reflection of
his deep spiritual experience. Written by a real metaphysician,
this masterpiece embraces for the first time the wholeness of
Blondel's thorough intentions, from the very first notes to the
final texts. Maurice Blondel: A Philosophical Life is, indeed, an
event. There will be henceforth a 'before' and an 'after' Oliva
Blanchette's book, which will delight not only Blondelian
researchers but also the entire philosophical community."
