The human situation.
by Dixon, William Macneile
Originally published in the late 1930's, 'The Human Situation' was written by W. Macneile Dixon, a well-known philosopher in his time and proves a fascinating read for anyone with an interest in philosophy. Delivered in Glasgow from 1935–1937, Dixon’s course of Gifford Lectures, entitled The Human Situation, explores the life of the human soul and contrasts a rationalist/scientific understanding of the world with Dixon’s own poetic/spiritualist understanding. Alongside Plotinus and Leibniz, he asserts that all nature is animate with endless congeries of monads that are ever in pursuit of becoming.
