Sommario/riassunto |
|
Indifference is the dimension of life that is utterly neutral, without care, feeling, or personality. Exploring topics such as time, chance, beauty, imagination, violence, and virtue, Scott shows how affirming indifference can be beneficial, and how destructive consequences can occur when we deny it. |
