"Edith Stein's Philosophy of Psychology and the Humanities is one of her best books. In it, we discover the role played by the philosophical-phenomenological analysis in two directions: the description of the human being and the relationship between phenomenology, psychology, and the human sciences. All this emerges in the book edited by Valentina Gaudiano, as she pinpoints in her introduction. We find in Section I the important contributions of Anna Jani and James McGuirk describing the context in which Edith Stein wrote her book. For its comprehension, essential is Mette Lebech's description of the content in Section II and her suggestion of the philosophical questions which arise by reading it. The message underlined in this companion is that philosophical-phenomenological anthropology is necessary for the foundation of psychology and of the human sciences. We notice that it is the innovative position of the "classical" phenomenology, as it is proposed by Edmund Husserl and Edith Stein, and it is the pivotal point which we find in the book, very convincing from a theoretical point of view." --Angela Ales Bello, Professor Emerita, Pontificia Università del Laterano e pivotal point which we find in the book, very convincing from a theoretical point of view.
