Description
An Introduction to Personalism explores the philosophy that emerged in response to the tragedies of two World Wars, the Great Depression, and totalitarian regimes. Juan Manuel Burgos delves into the ideas of over twenty thinkers who contributed to the growth of personalism.
Burgos's encyclopedic knowledge allows for a concise and well-rounded perspective on each of these philosophers, bringing together their brightest insights into an organic whole. He argues that personalism is not an eclectic hodge-podge, but a full-fledged school of philosophy.
