3.0 out of 5 stars This book should be edited & republished, January 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Reason and Violence (World of Man) (Hardcover)
In 1964, antipsychiatrists Ronald Laing & David Cooper produced this distillation of 3 works by Sartre that were influential on them: two sections of Sartre's 1960 opus, "Critique of Dialectical Reason," and his 1952 biography, "Saint Genet." But "Reason and Violence" is an almost impossible read; it is badly edited (with British-style punctuation, which may confuse Americans) & lacks any real format: 3 reviews, 3 sections, but with the earliest, "Saint Genet," sandwiched between the 1957 & 1960 works. This needs to be re-edited & published for a new generation.
