Viac o knihe

Exploring the intersection of psychoanalysis and moral philosophy, the book examines whether reason can integrate the nonrational aspects of the psyche into a comprehensive understanding of humanity. Jonathan Lear argues that without addressing this integration, philosophy loses its connection to real human experiences. The work serves as a foundation for ethical considerations on how to live, emphasizing the importance of understanding both rational and nonrational elements of the human condition.
