Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the biological study of death, the book explores its conceptual genealogy and the assumptions underlying this field. It is structured into two parts: the first examines experimental physiology through Bichat's work on death processes, while the second discusses evolutionary biology's perspective from the late 1950s, addressing death as a by-product of natural selection. The author highlights the significance of this research area, revealing how it shapes our understanding and sometimes challenges traditional philosophical notions surrounding death.
