It brings his views on the self and ontology into contemporary focus, arguing that the self is not a self-contained or self-determining identity.

Lawrence Hass' treatment of Merleau-Ponty's is thorough and well written. While I agree with Hass' assessment, regarding Merleau-Ponty's philosophy as a philosophy of expression, he only really develops this view at the end of the book, and as such, the book suffers from being too much of an introduction to Merleau-Ponty's philosophy and not an elaboration of that thought. All in all though I think this would be a readable introduction for someone who has never encountered Merleau-Ponty.
