Love and the Dignity of Human Life

Philosophy

“Robert Spaemann is one of the leading contemporary German philosophers. In many groundbreaking works he has thought about what it means to be a person. Persons, he argues, 'have' their nature and are free; they are not simply their nature. This is why there is a special dignity of the person. This insight is extremely important but often forgotten. In these timely (and very accessible) essays, Spaemann reminds us about who a person is -- and how we can live humanly. Everyone who cares about the human person, not just the professional philosopher, will be grateful for this book!”
