Straw Dogs is a work of philosophy, which sets out to challenge our most cherished assumptions about what it means to be human. From Plato to Christianity, from the Enlightenment to Nietzsche, the Western tradition has been based on arrogant and erroneous beliefs about human beings and their place in the world. Philosophies such as liberalism and Marxism think of humankind as a species whose destiny is to transcend natural limits and conquer the Earth. Even in the present day, despite Darwin's discoveries, nearly all schools of thought take as their starting point the belief that humans are radically different from other animals. John Gray argues that this humanist belief is an illusion. The aim of Straw Dogs is to explore how the world and human life look once humanism has been finally abandoned.


Straw Dogs explores philosophical issues such as the nature of the self, free will, morality, progress and the value of truth. Drawing his inspiration from art, poetry, and the frontiers of science as well as philosophy itself, John Gray presents a post-humanist view of the world and of human life. Straw Dogs is an exhilarating, sometimes disturbing book that leads the reader to question their deepest beliefs.Đặt sách ngoại văn Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Mua sách ngoại văn Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Đọc sách ngoại văn Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Sách tiếng Anh Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Tải về Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Review sách Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Review phim Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Đánh giá Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Mua Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals giá rẻ Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Đánh giá Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Tác giả Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Tiki Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Fahasa Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Shopee Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Amazon Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Download PDF Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Download epub Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Ebook Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Tiếng Việt Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Sách ngoại văn Straw Dogs: Thoughts On Humans And Other Animals Đọc sách John N.
