Summary
Care is the most important thing for life, since to model life we need to care for ourselves, for the others, and for the human institutions. Care is the most important ontological phenomenon because we are what we care for. It is essential to care for life in order to maintain it along time, to make it flourish and to repair the wounds of being-there. This book develops a philosophy of care not only by considering the contemporary literature, but above all by basing the argumentations on the ancient Greek philosophy. Moreover, the argumentations are grounded in a phenomenological analysis of the experience of care. The author Luigina Mortari PhD , is Full Professor at the School of Medicine and member of the Board of Administration of the University of Verona. She is the President of the INDIRE, a national center of research for the educative research.
