Synopsis
Contributing Authors

La philosophie est parfois percue comme une activite abstraite et detachee des problemes et contraintes qui regissent nos vies quotidiennes. Ce livre d’Havi Carel prouve au contraire qu’il est possible de faire resonner des questionnements philosophiques au plus profond de nous. Comment penser la sante lorsque la maladie est une presence ineliminable? Comment la maladie bouleverse-t-elle le rapport a soi et au monde? Comment vivre avec la peur de mourir? Comment apprehender des choix de vie aux consequences imprevisibles? En nourrissant ses idees de son propre vecu avec une maladie chronique grave, Carel reussit la prouesse d’apporter tout a la fois une perspective nouvelle sur des debats academiques ainsi que des ressources precieuses pour les patients, ceux qui les entourent et les professionnels de sante qui les accompagnent. Important succes d’edition outre-Manche, nous vous proposons la premiere traduction en francais de cet ouvrage qui constitue deja un classique du champ des humanites medicales.
