200 Pages. Five inked lines of author's signature on front endpaper. Includes date April 2010. No defects noted. Interior text pages are flawless. The 21st century needs a new paradigm for phiosophy, because both Anglo-American and Continental philosophy have ended in analytic sterility and desconstructive nihilism. They have ignored the radical reality of humman life, which all other realities must presuppose. Three Europoean philosophers in the 20th centurey, Dilthey, Heidegger, and Ortega y Gasset, began to develop this idea, but never before has it been systiematicall conceptualized and adequately expounded. With reference to the works of these phiosophers, this book examines the major categories and essential properties of human life as it is lived, for example, in time, circumstance, hsitory, and understanding.
