The Phenomenon of Life : Toward a Philosophical Biology, Paperback / softback Book

The Phenomenon of Life : Toward a Philosophical Biology Paperback / softback

Part of the Studies in Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy series

Paperback / softback

Description

A classic of phenomenology and existentialism, The Phenomenon of Life sets forth a systematic and comprehensive philosophy--an existential interpretation of biological facts laid out in support of his claim that the mind is prefigured throughout organic existence.

Hans Jonas shows how life-forms present themselves on an ascending scale of perception and freedom of action, a scale reaching its apex in a human being's capacity for thought and morally responsible behaviour.
