Heller went on to develop one of the most comprehensive oeuvres in contemporary philosophy, putting forward a distinctive ethical theory and developing insightful analyses of a vast range of topics. Here, philosophers, sociologists, journalists and political scientists assess different elements of Heller's work, highlight relevant shifts within that work, and address its intrinsic consistency.Philosophy, Hungarian20th centurySociologyPhilosophyElectronic books.Philosophy, HungarianSociologyPhilosophy.199/.439Terezakis Katie1972-876450MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453279803321Engaging Agnes Heller1957123UNINA
