Mortals, Money, and Masters of Thought: Collected philosophical essays by Giorgio Baruchello

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Mortals, Money, and Masters of Thought is a thoroughly enjoyable medley of philosophical meditations. Covering a very wide variety of topics, from metaphysical matters like the nature of history and art, to practical and ethically serious matters like global economic injustice, this collection nevertheless offers a remarkably coherent reading experience, where all topics are joined together by the common theme of death. This is the work of an enquiring mind, investigating the most serious matters with logical clarity and also with imaginative playfulness." --Brendan Myers, author of Reclaiming Civilization.
