    Everyone seems to think it obvious that equality of opportunity is at least part of what constitutes a fair society.

    Presents a comprehensive study of Plato's and Aristotle's conceptions of non-rational desire.

    av Sarah L. (Student in counselling psychology Gibbons
    2 341,-

    Sarah Gibbons here departs from previous scholarship on Kant by demonstrating the centrality of imagination to Kant's philosophy as a whole. She shows that imagination performs a vital function in `bridging gaps' between the different elements of cognition and experience. Thus, the role imagination plays in Kant's works expresses his fundamental insight into the complexity of human cognition.

    757 - 1 596,-
