Abstract

The text is a review of the book "Rationality, Action, and Opacity. Vulnerable Subjects in Free Lands" written by Fernando Broncano. The author explores the notion of rationality and presents his own conception of it. The book addresses topics such as spontaneity, agency, and vulnerability of subjects, and highlights the importance of social interaction in the formation of identity. The author questions human rationality using examples of horrifying cases of human behavior and recounts the story of Christopher John McCandless as an example of the disastrous results of excessive modesty. The book seeks to generate a debate within the philosophical community. [Extracted from the article]
