"Nicholas H.Smith's monograph Charles Taylor...puts forward a clear and well-argued assessment of Taylor's entire project, with details on his intellectual biography and political engagement. For the purposes of thinking through Taylor's work so far, this book is probably the best one around...The book is a great help for someone trying to understand Taylor's views on philosophical anthropology and transcendental argumentation...In total, Smith's book is a must for those interested in Taylor's work and a good guide for those who want a reliable, critical overview"
Arto Laitinen, Sats-Nordic Journal of Philosophy
