The Acting Person (Analecta Husserliana)
The Acting Person (Analecta Husserliana)
by Karol Wojtyla (Saint Pope John Paul II)
Publisher: Springer; 1979 edition (October 14, 2011)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 9400994206
ISBN-13: 978-9400994201I would love to see this monumental book as part of Logos/Verbum/Noet. It is a great philosophical feat and would be wonderful to read with the tools of the software. Plus, I don't see a lot of phenomenology in Noet, so this would help to fill a niche. Because of its price and rarity in print, a digital version would be quite helpful!
