From the reviews:"This volume on the Vienna Circle's influence in the Nordic countries gives a very interesting presentation of an almost forgotten landmark. ... The volume here reviewed, dedicated to Arne Naess, is intended to fill the historical gaps and provide a more complete picture of this rich network, which even the Second World War was unable to destroy." (Carlo Penco, Nordicum-Mediterraneum, Vol. 8 (1), 2013)
