Produktbeschreibung

Integrating continental and Anglo-American traditions, the author exposes empathy as the foundation of the being-with-one-another of human beings.

Rezensionen

'[Agosta] succeeds in convincing the reader that empathy is indeed a topic which is worthy of renewed attention as it migrates from 'the periphery of ethics, aesthetics, and theory of the mind to a key place in establishing and maintaining the integrity and emotional equilibrium of dynamic interrelations with other individuals'.' - The Journal of Consciousness Studies
