About the Author(s)
Stephen Langfur (Ph. D.) has published widely in phenomenology and psychology journals. Philosophy is concerned with first things, and the same is true of infancy research, yet few have connected these disciplines. Philosophy Meets the Infant is Langfur’s first book-length treatment of what he calls the You-I Event, in which self-awareness originates and develops through the attentions of others. He has also authored the philosophical memoir Confession from a Jericho Jail.
