Ill-Being: Philosophical Perspectives

Beschreibung

Nearly all of us aspire to live a prudentially good life. To achieve this, we must understand which things are good for us and which things are bad for us -- in other words, we must understand what well-being and ill-being consist in. Ill-Being: Philosophical Perspectives fulfills this endeavour.
