The Essential Element in Human Action

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book, first published in 1987, investigates what distinguishes human behaviour that is action (praxis) from the part that is not. The distinction was drawn by Socrates, but key elements became obscured in modern philosophy.This study recovers those elements, and analyses them in terms of a defensible semantics on Fregean lines.
