Pathways in Phenomenology
Pathways in Phenomenology (PIPH) focuses on works that bring
newcomers into the phenomenological tradition; works on phenomenological method and methodology (including works for beginners as well as works for specialists); works presenting the results of original phenomenological investi- gations; and from time to time, other unusual but worthy works that may not fit easily into other book series in phenom- enology, but are relevant to phenomenological practice in any of its multifarious forms. Our aim is to foster a view of phenom- enology as method rather than as received dogma and to provide a forum for diverse voices in a spirit of methodological pluralism. Authors employing phenomenological method in any of its forms to carry out original phenomenological investi- gations on any theme are especially encouraged to submit proposals to piph@zetabooks.com.
PIPH is a peer-reviewed, English-language series published in both e-book and print-on-demand format in collaboration with the Initiative in Phenomenological Practice (IPP), whose mission is to foster original phenomenological investigation using a variety of phenomenological methods (including work carried out in many different disciplines).

Embree Reflective Analysis
The basic contention of Reflective Analysis is that phenomenology is
most fundamentally an approach, rather than a set of texts or concepts:
phenomenologizing involves modes of observation and analysis that we
can learn to perform better. The author presents his own account step
by step, using everyday examples and dealing not only with perceiving
and thinking (leading themes for most phenomenologists), but also with
valuing and willing. Many charts and diagrams are used to summarize key
distinctions, and the book also includes exercises that help readers
refine this approach for themselves. The text was designed for college
students, and there is a "Preface for Instructors" who wish to use the
book in the classroom, but others will find this a friendly, helpful
"first introduction" that they can study on their own. The work is
suitable for students in all disciplines, not just philosophers, and
will be especially welcome to any reader who appreciates learning by
doing and prefers examples to footnotes.
