Book Description
This work focuses on autothanatography, the writing of one's death. The study also argues that autobiography is aporetic, not or not only a matter of a subject strategizing with language to produce an exemplary identity but a matter also of its responding to an exorbitant call to its death.

Book Description
What makes a certain person's life remarkable and influential? In the case of Carl Rogers, the revolutionary and widely published humanistic psychologist, this book offers several factors: his ideas, his way of relating to colleagues, friends, and family, and simply his way of being. Likewise, the eight other people featured here are notable for the same reasons. Connecting well with people is characteristic of each of them: Thomas Gordon -- Maureen O'Hara -- Ruth SanfordJohn Vasconcellos -- Art Combs -- David RogersNatalie Rogers -- Haruko TsugeInspired in part by knowing or studying with Carl Rogers, they have created their own ideas and ventures to help many others. Their stories make this a multiple biography: a mosaic of stories about people who helped change the world -- and the way we feel about ourselves.

Regard for Reason in the Moral Mind
Author: Joshua May
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192539604
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
The burgeoning science of ethics has produced a trend toward pessimism. Ordinary moral thought and action, we're told, are profoundly influenced by arbitrary factors and ultimately driven by unreasoned feelings. This book counters the current orthodoxy on its own terms by carefully engaging with the empirical literature. The resulting view, optimistic rationalism, shows the pervasive role played by reason our moral minds, and ultimately defuses sweeping debunking arguments in ethics. The science does suggest that moral knowledge and virtue don't come easily. However, despite the heavy influence of automatic and unconscious processes that have been shaped by evolutionary pressures, we needn't reject ordinary moral psychology as fundamentally flawed or in need of serious repair. Reason can be corrupted in ethics just as in other domains, but a special pessimism about morality in particular is unwarranted. Moral judgment and motivation are fundamentally rational enterprises not beholden to the passions.
