Man and Nature • Author: Seyyed Hossein Nasr • 2019
JOD
Man and Nature encompasses the philosophy of Seyyed Hossein Nasr, a contemporary Islamic philosopher. He is the only Muslim to date to have a large volume published about him by the Library of Living Philosophers, alongside volumes on major philosophers like Germany's Habermas. Seyyed Hossein Nasr worked as a professor at George Washington University in the United States and was unable to return to his home country of Iran due to the disapproval of the ruling regime.
The book offers a brilliant critique of modernity and postmodernity and their impact on the spirit of contemporary man in his relationship with consciousness, nature, the sacred, and happiness. He is the philosopher who provided different answers to fundamental questions in the history of Islamic philosophy, such as: What is the cause of evil? What is the best way to prove the existence of God? And what is existence?
