Description
Being and Nothingness is a groundbreaking philosophical work that explores the human condition in profound detail. Jean-Paul Sartre argues that our lives are defined by our choices and that we are responsible for creating our own values.
This influential book introduces key concepts such as 'bad faith' and the 'look' of the other, and presents a stark and thought-provoking picture of our moral universe. Sartre's ideas continue to resonate with readers today, offering a nuanced and complex understanding of human existence.
A new translation of this important work includes a helpful introduction, notes on the translation, and a comprehensive index, making it an ideal choice for anyone interested in philosophy and existentialism.
