Exploring Personhood: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Human Nature
Readers undeterred by fears of "foundationalism" will appreciate Torchia's study as a hearty meal in a day when so many offerings are thin and unsatisfying. . . .Exploring Personhoodis modestly offered as an "alternative account." It is an account that deserves attention, especially by those disinclined to examine it. (Theological Studies)Exploring Personhoodis much more than an introductory text. It argues for the Thomistic view of the human person in our world of seemingly irreconcilable pluralism in philosophy through a sweeping survey of the history of Western philosophy from the Presocratics to Postmodernism.
