Countering prevailing theories on the nature of persons, Wollheim submits an account of the mind dynamically conceived and proposes that we take as fundamental the process of living as a person. To illuminate this process, the author draws on psychoanalysis and literature, in particular the case studies of Freud and the writings of Proust.Wollheims is a very original and extremely interesting approach to the philosophy of the mind, bringing together three areas of reflection not often combined: the philosophy of mind, psychoanalysis, and ethics.-Bernard Williams, University of California, BerkeleyThere are only a few people who can write intelligently and insightfully about psychoanalysis and philosophy. Richard Wollheim is pre-eminent.-Jonathan Lear, University of Chicago\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51736038048032,"sku":"NEW0300079753","price":47.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61QHPE8_kgL.jpg?v=1779503616","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-thread-of-life-william-james-lectures-0300079753","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
