The Nature of Human Persons

More about the book

Exploring the essence of humanity, this book delves into the philosophical inquiries surrounding human nature, identity, and existence. Jason Eberl examines the interplay between mind, body, and soul, drawing on Thomas Aquinas's insights while contrasting them with modern theories like substance dualism and animalism. The text addresses critical questions about the beginning of human life and the definition of death, ultimately advocating for the Thomistic perspective as a comprehensive understanding of human existence from conception to beyond.
