Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. "In this book Professor Dorothy Emmet considers activities of persons in societies under the aspects of 'function' and 'purpose', asking what can be said in terms of of one and what in terms of the other, and how should they be related to each other. She…also looks at the element of individual creativeness, for which there is no satisfactory word, but which is here called in general 'powers', and asks how account can be taken of this both in theoretical work and in practical social relations. The bearing of these notions on the concepts of 'social system', 'role', and 'status' is considered; and suggestions are made as to how they may all three be related in considering persons and vocational groups. The discussion attempts a new approach to certain questions in political philosophy and the philosophy of religion, and bears indirectly on some practical problems in social and religious morality." (From the dust-jacket write-up) Dorothy Emmet was Professor of Philosophy in the University of Manchester, and author, among many other publications, of "The Nature of Metaphysical Thinking". Bringing level-headed thinking to some long-standing problems of society, she has contributed an important book, well worth the read.
