{"product_id":"the-brute-within","title":"The Brute Within","description":"\u003cp\u003eHendrik Lorenz presents a comprehensive study of Plato's and Aristotle's conceptions of non-rational desire. They see this as something that humans share with animals, and which aims primarily at the pleasures of food, drink, and sex. Lorenz explores the cognitive resources that both philosophers make available for the explanation of such desires, and what they take rationality to add to the motivational structure of human beings. In doing so, he exposes a\n\u003cbr\u003eremarkable degree of continuity between Plato's and Aristotle's thought in this area. He also sheds fresh light, not only  on both philosophers' theories of motivation, but also on how they conceive of the\n\u003cbr\u003emind, both in itself and in relation to the body.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46059324965102,"sku":"9780199561698","price":102.98,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780199561698.jpg?v=1736496252","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/the-brute-within","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
