Eugene Gendlin's contribution to the theory of language is the focus of this collection of essays. This compilation of critical studies - each followed by a comment from Gendlin himself - investigates how concepts grow out of experience, and explores relations between Gendlin's philosophy of language and experience and the philosophies of Wittgenstein, Dilthey, and Heidegger. The breadth of the anthology is illustrated by its list of contributors: William James Earle, Veronique Foti, Eugene Gendlin, Lawrence Hatab, Mark Johnson, David Kolb, David Michael Levin, Kenneth Liberman, Joseph Margolis, J. N. Mohanty, Graeme Nicholson, Robert C. Scharff, Hans Julius Schneider, Jerald Wallulis, and Meredith Williams.

Eugene T. Gendlin, Ph.D. is a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. For many years he was the editor of Psycho-therapy: Theory, Research, and Practice. In 1970, because of his development of experiential psychology, he was chosen by the Psychotherapy Division of the American Psychological Association for their first Distinguished Professional Psychologist of the Year award. David Kleinberg-Levin taught in the Humanities Department at MIT from 1968 until 1972, when he joined the Department of Philosophy at Northwestern. The heart of his work is disclosive hermeneutical phenomenology, which he brings to bear in innovative ways on questions and problems in aesthetics, clinical psychology, moral philosophy, and critical social theory. He is the author of Gestures of Ethical Life: Hoelderlin's Question of Measure after Heidegger.
