Summary: In about 200 pages, this book opens unique doors towards a higher and quite distinct plane of discourse in Philippine Studies via a freshly minted Ferdinand Blumentritt. The author, with his evident and even rare scholarship aside, dishes out personal reflections which underscores his fundamental wisdom which liberates library research from mere transmutation of readings into an evolution and transformation of resurrected spirits. General readers will find the formal, methodical and theoretical analyses engaging and provocative. Dr. F. P. A. Demeterio IlI essays with a style that assures and achieves what he personifies-"to be circumspect, prudent and to be perseveringly diligent as a scholar.-[to be able] to enlighten the politicised foundations of Philippine Studies." This book hallmarks this author's pen. (Source: http://www.dlsu.edu.ph/offices/publishing-house/)
