Features: This book is the last comprehensive work published by the renowned German philosopher and founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl, during his lifetime. It is one of the most accessible monographs in the challenging field of phenomenology. In the book, Husserl elaborates on the actual manifestations of the European scientific crisis and its historical roots. At the same time, he critiques the scientific view of positivism, as well as the philosophical ideas of existentialism and irrationalism, striving to establish a completely new, absolutely true rigorous science—phenomenology—as a solid foundation for resolving crises in other sciences.
