From the rear cover
"[Mrs. Warnock concentrates] on puzzles of perception and interpretations, that is, on imagination defined as the mediating faculty between the 'objective' world of phenomena and our subjective experience of it. She then examines the use we make of that mediated experience. And, as reductive as this narrow focusing of attention may sound, it is surprising what a spread of topics it illuminates. . . . You could not wish for a clearer or more elegantly argued account of these particular concerns." -Economist "Although her exposition and commentary resembles an account of historical development of the Romantic concept of imagination and its twentieth-century critique, in fact she is more concerned to refine her own (and her reader's) understanding of the diverse but related functions of imagination. . . . Her discussion of Kant is brilliant." -Journal of the American Academy of Religion
