Description
Aaron James explores what makes someone an asshole in this engaging and accessible philosophical inquiry. The concept of assholes is often overlooked, yet they are ubiquitous in our daily lives. Philosophers such as Rousseau, Kant, Hegel, and Sartre have grappled with the subject, but no one has offered a sustained analytical treatment until now. James tackles the topic in a humorous and entertaining way, examining different types of assholes, their roles in society, and how to deal with them. This book offers a unique blend of erudite discussion and comic flavour, making it an appealing read for those interested in philosophy and everyday life.
