Condition: Very Good. : En este fascinante libro, Justin Smith explora la historia de la irracionalidad desde la antigüedad hasta la era moderna, examinando cómo ha influido en la política, la religión, el arte y la ciencia. Smith argumenta que la irracionalidad es una parte fundamental de la experiencia humana y que ha desempeñado un papel importante en la configuración de la historia. A través de un análisis profundo y accesible, el autor nos invita a reflexionar sobre la naturaleza de la razón y la sinrazón en nuestras vidas y en el mundo que nos rodea.Desde el sexo y la música hasta la religión y la política, este libro ofrece una visión completa de la irracionalidad y las formas en que siempre ha estado con nosotros, y siempre lo estará. Smith muestra que, a lo largo de la historia, cada triunfo de la razón ha sido temporal y reversible, y que los esquemas racionales a menudo resultan en su polo opuesto.
