Professor Magee's text covers the whole of Hegel's works. Each entry if clearly written with examples that make Hegel's terms and ideas understandable without simplifying their meanings or inclining them toward one interpretation or another. This work is invaluable for anyone studying Hegel's philosophy, especially those coming to his writings for the first time.

Magee's determination to make Hegel accessible will, one hopes, be rewarded by a new generation of readers prepared for their own adventures in the concept.
