SPAEMANN, R., Persons. The Difference between `Someone' and `Something'. Oxford University Press, 2017. 272p. Paperback. Series: Oxford Studies in Theological Ethics. Spaemann provides substantive analysis about what persons are by distinguishing what persons do from what nonpersons do. But this is no mere case of positing-in good Sartrean fashion-that human existence precedes essence. No, this is a sophisticated investigation into what makes persons unique among all other existing entities through a focus on those activities, primarily of the mind, that enable one to understand human beings as persons.
