Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'The Self; Its Body and Freedom' is a profound philosophical inquiry into the nature of human existence and the enduring paradoxes of the conscious mind. Written by the influential American idealist William Ernest Hocking, this work explores the complex relationship between the individual self and its physical manifestation. Hocking delves into the traditional problems of dualism, seeking to reconcile the mechanistic laws of the physical world with the perceived reality of human agency and moral responsibility.Throughout the text, Hocking examines how the self expresses itself through its bodily presence while maintaining a degree of autonomy that allows for genuine freedom. He argues against strictly deterministic views of human nature, proposing instead a framework where the mind and body interact in a way that preserves the integrity of the personal will. By addressing the intersection of psychology and metaphysics, the book offers a compelling defense of the self as a creative and purposeful entity. 'The Self; Its Body and Freedom' remains a significant contribution to 20th-century thought, providing a nuanced exploration of the foundational questions surrounding identity, consciousness, and the possibility of free action in a structured universe.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
