More about the book

Exploring themes such as identity, violence, and freedom, the book offers a fresh perspective on the ethical and political dimensions of philosophy. It combines deconstructive critique with English skepticism, advocating for "negative capability"—an awareness of human folly and philosophical flaws. The author emphasizes extending responsibility beyond humanity to encompass all life, linking philosophy's roots in violence and ecology. David Wood aims to redefine the discipline's relevance in contemporary discourse, setting the stage for a vital philosophical exploration.
