Omschrijving
"Not since Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance have I read such a mesmerizing confluence of personal experience and formal thought as John Kaag's American Philosophy: A Love Story. That combination is on display again in his Sick Souls, Healthy Minds - a brief and powerful book about one of America's most profound minds, William James, and what he can teach us about what makes life worth living."?Robert D. Richardson, author of William James: In the Maelstrom of American Modernism "In this beautifully written book, which is filled with bracing insights, John Kaag shows why William James has had a deep, life-altering, therapeutic effect on his readers over the past century - and can continue to have the same effect on new readers today." - Jennifer Ratner-Rosenhagen, author of American Nietzsche: A History of an Icon and His Ideas
