About this title:

Synopsis: A major contribution to contemporary social theory. Not only does it provide a compelling critique of some of the main perspectives in 20th century philosophy and social science, but it also presents a systematic synthesis of the many themse which have preoccupied Habermas for thirty years. --Times Literary Supplement

From the Back Cover: The key to his notion of reaching understanding is the possibility of using reasons or grounds to gain intersubjective recognition for criticizable validity claims.
