THE VIEW FROM NOWHERE - THOMAS NAGEL KARTONIERT...

Much philosophical debate has attempted to reconcile the human capacity to view the world both
objectively and subjectively. Thomas Nagel's ambitious and lively book tackles this fundamental
issue  arguing that our divided nature is the root of a whole range of philosophical problems 
touching  as it does  every aspect of human life. He deals with its manifestations in such
fields of philosophy as the mind-body problem  personal identity  knowledge and scepticism
thought and reality  free will  and ethics.From reviews of the hardback:`Remarkable ... all of
his discussions are clear and insightful  but some reach a level of originality and
illumination that opens genuinely new avenues of philosophical thought ... a rare combination
of profundity and clarity  along with simplicity of expression. It should be recommended to all
those who are bored with or despair about philosophy.'Times Literary Supplement
