Philosophical Health

A Practical Introduction

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Are you philosophically healthy? Do your actions reflect your thoughts, do your words mirror your values, or do you live in contradiction? This first introduction to the new field of philosophical health, written by its forerunner, Luis de Miranda, explores the 6 elements of the discipline, including the senses of body, self, belonging, possibility, purpose, and the philosophical sense. Each chapter will be placed in conversation with a modern philosopher: Bergson for embodied intuition, Descartes for self-honesty, Spinoza for well-belonging, in order to make existential stances explicit, thus more relevant and actionable in practice"--
