Bemerkung:

Sehr gutes Ex. - Englisch. - "The subject of emotions in philosophy is very much on the front burner in many areas today, including such diverse disciplines as cognitive science, ethics, and the philosophy of rhetoric. Meyers book is thus right on the money. It is sensible in its quasi-historical structure, imaginative in its insights, especially at the intersection of emotions, rationality, rhetoric, and logic, which is one of the author's primary concerns. ..." - -Robert C. Solomon, University of Texas ?
