Conclusions -- Index. 330 $aThere is an important gap in the philosophical literature concerning the concept of fear and its remedies, and this book has been designed to examine different concepts of fear that inform its therapy. Structured as a historical-philosophical investigation of the concept of fear, this book is not a purely historical analysis of fear but also provides a broad brushwork rendition of the main concepts of fear as presented by selected philosophers and thinkers, and how they have approached its therapy. 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aMedicine?Philosophy 606 $aPhilosophy of Mind$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E31000 606 $aPhilosophy of Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34030 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 0$aMedicine?Philosophy. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Mind. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Medicine. 676 $a128.2 700 $aStarkstein$b Sergio$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0989015 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300618303321 996 $aA Conceptual and Therapeutic Analysis of Fear$92261633 997 $aUNINA
