Nature of Identify And Self

The ancient Greeks, more than any other early people or culture, have given us the template for Western civilization.

“This is a book about nature and culture,” Eric T. Freyfogle writes, “about our place and plight on earth, and the nagging challenges we face in living on it in ways that might endure.” Challenges, he says, we are clearly failing to meet.
