A World Without Why by Raymond Geuss
Philosophical Reflections on the Nature of Human Inquiry
The book explores the philosophical concept of questioning the necessity of seeking reasons or justifications for everything, challenging the traditional Western emphasis on rationality and purpose. It delves into the implications of living in a world where not everything needs a "why," examining how this perspective can influence our understanding of ethics, politics, and human behavior. Through a series of essays, the author critiques the limitations of conventional moral and political theories, advocating for a more nuanced and less deterministic approach to understanding human life and society.
