Explores themes of responsibility and initiation and offers an "initiatory ethics."

The final installment in Appelbaum's three-volume exploration of the "intervening subject"-volumes one and two are The Stop and Disruption, also published by SUNY Press-The Delay of the Heart explores themes of responsibility and initiation and offers an "initiatory ethics." It intimates a secret of delay that is behind all traditional teachings and suggests ways that a sensitivity to a sacred obligation emerges from the heart of human experience.
