Despite the author's criticisms of Thoreau, it is more like Walden than any other book I have read. . . . The book makes great strides toward bringing the best insights from medieval philosophy and from contemporary environmental ethics together. Anyone interested in both of these areas must read this book."—Daniel A. Dombrowski, The Thomist"Those who share Kohák's concern to understand nature as other than a mere resource or matter in motion will find his temporally oriented interpretation of nature instructive. It is here in particular that Kohák turns moments of experience to account philosophically, turning what we habitually overlook or avoid into an opportunity and basis for self-knowledge. This is an impassioned attempt to see the vital order of nature and the moral order of our humanity as one."—EthicsLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USAuthor: Erazim KohakGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityItem Height: 23mmItem Length: 15mmItem Width: 2mmItem Weight: 454gRelease Year: 1987 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
