This book is a philosophical and historical response to modern western discussion of what is human. It moves across the disciplinary boundaries, which divide up intellectual life, in pursuit of a conception of "the human sciences." Roger Smith explains why human self- knowledge must go beyond the rival claims of biology and religion to include history, and he achieves a unique and original synthesis of the alternative to an overly biological view.
