The book explores the concept of "positive freedom," contrasting it with "negative freedom" to challenge traditional understandings of liberty. It delves into philosophical frameworks and societal implications, encouraging readers to consider how true freedom encompasses not just the absence of constraints but also the presence of opportunities and capabilities. Through critical analysis, it aims to redefine personal and collective freedom in a contemporary context, prompting a deeper reflection on what it means to be truly free.
Paul Gordon Poradie kníh
Autor si vypestoval celoživotnú vášeň pre prírodu, ktorá sa začala ako detské rybárske výpravy a rozvinula sa počas vojenskej služby a povojnových štúdií. Skúsenosti z kempovania pri jazerách, kde pracoval, a rybárčenie na Michiganskom jazere formovali jeho vzťah k vidieckej krajine. Kľúčový zlom v jeho živote nastal po veľkej snehovej búrke v Chicagu v roku 1967, ktorá ho inšpirovala k preskúmaniu severozápadného Ontaria v Kanade a k hlbokej láske k jeho ostrovom.
