Description
A comprehensive guide to two influential philosophical movements of the 20th century. This book provides an in-depth exploration of phenomenology and existentialism, covering their key concepts, themes, and applications. The authors offer a detailed examination of the area where these two philosophies intersect, as well as longer essays on each of the main schools of thought. The book also features problem-oriented chapters that delve into unusual subjects such as medicine, emotions, artificial intelligence, and environmental philosophy. With its topical organisation around concepts like temporality, intentionality, death, and nihilism, this volume is an ideal resource for anyone seeking to understand these complex philosophical ideas.
