Life's Philosophy : Reason and Feeling in a Deeper World, Paperback / softback Book

Life's Philosophy : Reason and Feeling in a Deeper World Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess' meditation on the art of living is an exhortation to preserve the environment and biodiversity.

Now in his nineties, Naess offers a bright and bold perspective on the power of feelings to move us away from ecological and cultural degradation toward sound, future-focused policy and action.Naess acknowledges the powerlessness of the intellect without the heart, and, like Thoreau before him, he rejects the Cartesian notion of mind-body separation.

He advocates instead for the integration of reason and emotion - a combination Naess believes will inspire us to make changes for the better.

Playful and serious, this is a guidebook for finding our way on a planet wrecked by the harmful effects of consumption, population growth, commodification, technology, and globalization.
