"Philip Grier has done the English-speaking philosophical community a great service in making this rich commentary available to us." —Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
“Grier’s masterful translation brings into a view a seminal work by the Russian religious philosopher and publicist Ivan A. Il’in. Anglo-American readers will benefit from the clarity and eloquence of the translation, supported by a thorough documentation in form of translator’s notes, detailed bibliography, and trilingual glossary. This is a highly valuable publication, and it should become a major reference point in the field.” —Marina F. Bykova, editor of Russian Studies in Philosophy
