Eine Art zu leben: Über die Vielfalt menschlicher Würde

Dignity is the highest good a human being possesses. But what do we actually mean when we speak of dignity? Peter Bieri’s book deals with this central theme of our lives. However, human dignity cannot be explained with a single term. Bieri therefore approaches it as an observer. Using examples from everyday life and literature, the philosopher from Switzerland develops a concept of dignity that depends on how we treat others as well as ourselves. Dignity, it turns out, is not an abstract quality, but a certain way of living.
