Martin Buber and the Human Sciences

The specific focus of this book is 'dialogue' as the foundation of and integrating factor in the human sciences, using dialogue in the special sense which Buber has made famous: mutuality, presentness, openness, meeting the other in his or her uniqueness and not just as content for one's own thought categories, and knowing as deriving in the first instance from mutual contact rather than knowledge of a subject about an object.Friedman, Maurice is the author of 'Martin Buber and the Human Sciences' with ISBN 9780791428764 and ISBN 0791428761.
