What I Read & Why: “Über den Menschen” by Gerhard Roth


“People have always wondered what forces or powers determine their lives. Is it divine providence, nameless fate, coincidence, genes, environment or the will of the individual? What do we have to accept as given, what can we influence of our own free will? What limits are placed on our decisions? There is no doubt that the answers to these questions are important for our society and also for the political decisions to be made.”
