About this book
Using both Father Kevin Wall’s eidetic matrix of “the relational unity of being” and Edith Stein’s remarkable synoptic view of intentionality in both Aquinas and Husserl, this book uncovers purely logical ground for a subalternate eidetic science called "convergent phenomenology," itself located at the inmost depths of Husserlian phenomenology. Convergent phenomenology emerges as a distinctively new discipline dealing with relation-like objectivity as opposed to the thing-like objectivity of traditional phenomenology. This has grand implications for the way we as humans conceive of God and being. The book thus benefits theologians, logicians, and phenomenologists by revealing the constitutive interrelationality of transcendental logic in an utterly new light as already flowering forth into formal ontology itself. What emerges is a rich conception of divinity and humanity.

Reviews
“Ruddy applies the theory of real relations from the Aristotle-Aquinas heritage and embeds it in Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology. The result is what the author calls “convergent phenomenology” embodying the truth that Husserlian pure object consciousness points beyond itself to the pure subject consciousness of God as He is in Himself. With this finding, the theme of ‘God’ is drawn into, and limits, transcendental phenomenology. I hope this faithful reinterpretation of Husserlian phenomenology will receive the close attention of Husserl scholars and of phenomenologists that it deserves.” (Jitendranath Mohanty, Professor Emeritus, Temple University, USA)
