Richard Shusterman makes a compelling case for the centrality of somaesthetics in both the theories and practices of our age.
Martin Jay, University of California (Berkeley)
Shusterman's pragmatist philosophy, like William James's a century earlier, succeeds in connecting diversities of experiences while maintaining their differences in a dynamic and fertile tension ... Against a society that glorifies certain models of good looks, against the conformism of advertised images ... Shusterman seeks to liberate the notion of self-use from its dominant competitive context ...
David Zerbib, Le Monde (Paris)
Shusterman's somaesthetics philosophy challenges what is largely taken for granted as the disjunctive relation between the life of the mind and life itself. There is a profound ethics at the heart of Shusterman's project, and what has been accomplished here is truly a thing of beauty.
Cynthia Gayman, Journal of Speculative Philosophy, Vol. 22, No. 3, 2008
The readers of Body Consciousness will benefit from the clear and well-argued position of the author and will find much of relevance to contemporary aesthetics and art theory. Unlike most books written by philosophers today, this book is intended to offer practical benefits aimed at heightened living to those willing to heed its message. Yet the theory and critical analysis offered do not suffer from acknowledgment of its practical applications. In this respect the outcome fulfills the aim of philosophy as a way of life.
