Mary Warnock Book order

'I never thought, when I met my husband at 18, got married at 25, had my third baby at 30 or even two years ago when I started writing this book, that I would find myself in the position I am now... a single mum to three boys, two dogs with a now ex-husband. This is a brutally honest account of life since I weed on that stick. Pregnancy, haemorrhoids, cabbage leaves, mum mates, tantrums, holidays, hormones, sex, dogs and divorce. This is definitely not a guide to parenting but it may make you feel a little less alone on the journey.'

Focusing on the philosophical doctrines of Jean-Paul Sartre, this critical exposition delves into his significant contributions to ethical and political theory, as well as metaphysics and ontology.

Reflects on the nature of religion and how it relates or ought to relate to the rest of life. This title argues that to value religion as the essential foundation of morality is a profound and probably dangerous mistake. It intends to clarify the foundation of morality in a society largely indifferent to and ignorant of religion.

Sartre explains the theory of existential psychoanalysis in this treatise on human reality.

Existentialism enjoyed great popularity in the 1940s and 1950s, and has probably had a greater impact upon literature than any other kind of philosophy. The common interest which unites Existentialist philosophers is their interest in human freedom. Readers of Existentialist philosophy are being asked, not merely to contemplate the nature of freedom, but to experience freedom, and to practise it. In this survey, Mary Warnock begins by considering the ethical origins of Existentialism, with particular reference to Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, and outlines the importance of a systematic account of man's connection with the world as expounded by Husserl. She discusses at length the common interests and ancestry of Existentialism in the works of Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, and Sartre, and offers some conclusions about the current nature and future of this committed and practical philosophy. This revised edition includes a postscript reviewing the status of Existentialism in the 1990s, and has a thoroughly updated bibliography.
