Reviews

"A model of a kind of intelligent writing that should be in greater supply. Bronner manages judiciously to combine an appreciation for the strengths of Camus and non-rancorous criticism of his weaknesses.... As a personal and opinionated book, it invites the reader into an engaging and informative dialogue." - American Political Science Review "This concise, lively, and remarkably evenhanded treatmetn of the life and work of Albert Camus weaves together biography, philosophical analysis, and political commentary." - Science & Society "Bronner succeeds in explaining Camus' unique sense of personal responsibility and his lucidity, tolerance, and honesty." - Library Journal"
