Dillon (1938-2005) was widely regarded as a world-leading Merleau-Ponty scholar. His book \u003ci\u003eMerleau-Ponty's Ontology\u003c\/i\u003e (1988) is recognized as a classic text that revolutionized the philosophical conversation about the great French phenomenologist. Dillon followed that book with two others: \u003ci\u003eSemiological Reductionism\u003c\/i\u003e, a critique of early-1990s linguistic reductionism, and \u003ci\u003eBeyond Romance\u003c\/i\u003e, a richly developed theory of love. At the time of his death, Dillon had nearly completed two further books to which he was passionately committed. The first one offers a highly original interpretation of Nietzsche's ontology of becoming. The second offers a detailed ethical theory based on Merleau-Ponty's account of carnal intersubjectivity. \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Ontology of Becoming and the Ethics of Particularity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e collects these two manuscripts written by a distinguished philosopher at the peak of his powers-manuscripts that, taken together, offer a distinctive and powerful view of human life and ethical relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e M.
