James S Spiegel

    Tento autor skúma zložité etické otázky a krásu umenia prostredníctvom filozofickej optiky. Jeho diela sa ponárajú do hlbín náboženskej filozofie a prenikavo komentujú populárnu kultúru. Prostredníctvom svojho písania a prednášok autor podnecuje čitateľov k hlbšiemu zamysleniu nad svetom okolo nás. Jeho prístup spája akademickú prísnosť s bystrým pozorovaním ľudskej existencie.
