Recensione:
`The work develops and articulates a brilliant and original central thesis; namely that modern individuals are best understood as complex bodies of thought, as embodied symbolic and material beings.

L'autore:

Ian Burkitt is in the Department of Social and Economic Studies, University of Bradford
