| Abstract
|
:
|
"In Nationalism and the Mind, the only published collection of Liah Greenfeld's essays in English, the reader can trace the evolution of Greenfeld's thought, culminating in her cutting-edge analysis of the relationship between nationalism, culture and the human mind. Arranged chronologically, and with an introduction by one of her former students, it provides a resource for anyone wishing to acquaint themselves with one of the most original thinkers of the current period." "Uniting disparate disciplines into a coherent perspective in philosophical anthropology, Greenfeld provides a comprehensive theory of human nature that will influence social science for years to come."--Jacket.
