Recenzii
Susan
Babbitt
takes
a
fresh
and
enlightened
view
at
the
inescapable
fact
that
we
are
bodies
that
think
and
not
minds
in
bodies.
She
ventures
beyond
too-familiar
philosophical
routines
to
give
us
new
perspectives
on
embodiment,
humanism,
religion,
and
notably
on
quietness.
A
most
stimulating,
even
inspiring
book.
Susan Babbitt, always challenging and original, is never more so than in her current exploration of humanism and embodiment in which she provocatively links Buddhism, Marxism, and Christianity with contemporary scientific realism. She argues cogently that the enemy of the humanism that is presupposed in liberation struggles is not religion but disembodied liberalism. This wide-ranging work will transform the debate on the limits and potential of self-knowledge needed for human liberation.
