Philosophers of all persuasions claim that it is only phenomenology that can show us the way out of the philosophical cul de sac and can lead us to the disclosure of the structures of Consciousness and Life-world. The present work analyses such proud claims threadbare from the viewpoints of: Psychology, Existentialism, Marxism and Indian philosophies. It also includes the author’s own criticisms of phenomenology. But the book is not all negative in attitude; it also gives an account of the plus-points of phenomenology. In addition, chapter I of the book briefly introduces phenomenology itself, which will help even the uninitiated pursue the arguments of the work.
