Fakta

Thomas Nagel's Mortal Questions explores some fundamental issues concerning the meaning, nature, and value of human life. Questions about our attitudes to death, sexual behavior, social inequality, war, and political power are shown to lead to more obviously philosophical problems about personal identity, consciousness, freedom, and value. This original and illuminating book aims at a form of understanding that is both theoretical and personal in its lively engagement with what are literally issues of life and death. In audio for the first time, this edition is masterfully narrated by Mike Fraser. Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. ©1979 Cambridge University Press.
