Beschreibung:
Susan Neiman, geb. 1955, ist Direktorin des Einstein Forums. Sie studierte Philosophie bei John Rawls an der Harvard University und bei Margherita von Brentano an der FU Berlin. Danach Professorin für Philosophie an der Yale University und der Tel Aviv University.
Beautifully written and thoroughly engaging, this book tells the history of modern philosophy as an attempt to come to terms with evil. It reintroduces philosophy to anyone interested in questions of life and death, good and evil, suffering and sense. Featuring a substantial new afterword by Neiman that raises provocative questions about Hannah Arendts take on Adolf Eichmann and the rationale behind the Hiroshima bombing, this Princeton Classics edition introduces a new generation of readers to this eloquent and thought-provoking meditation on good and evil, life and death, and suffering and sense.
