Reseña del libro "Anti-Rationalist Insights Into Grief, Anxiety, Love, and the Human Condition (en Inglés)"
This book's importance lies in the unique way it interweaves both philosophical and psychological considerations to challenge the merits of upholding reason as the most vaunted characteristic of the human condition. The critique of reason's pre-eminence in Western thought provides new insights into the emotions: anxiety, depression, and love. It also comprehensively undermines George A. Bonanno's much acclaimed scientific analysis of grief by highlighting multiple shortcomings which exist within his account. The book focuses attention on analytically trained thinkers including Martha Nussbaum, William Lyons, and Roger Scruton and illustrates their lack of coherence when attempting to describe objectless fear, ambivalent emotional responses, survivor guilt, and nostalgia. Further, it uniquely illustrates how Heidegger appropriated the Carthusian Order's way of life to detail essential lived experiences. It will be highly valuable to those working and studying in the areas of philosophy of emotion, psychology, mental health, and spirituality. Read more
