What is man?

Más información sobre el libro

What is Man? addresses itself to four perennial problems or questions concerning human nature. These are four questions which we will probably keep asking ourselves as long as the human race exists. They 1. Is man free or determined like a machine? 2. Does human nature change? 3. Is man primarily the product of heredity or environment? 4. Is man basically good or evil? The author explores alternative positions taken on these questions in the history of philosophy, and then adeptly describes two contrasting schools of thought on human nature and points to the need for future research.
