Böcker av Karl Jaspers

A compact discussion of being, truth, and reality by Karl Jaspers (1883-1969), the founder of German existentialism.

In "General Psychopathology", perhaps his most important contribution to the Heidelberg school, Jaspers critiques the scientific aspirations of psychotherapy, arguing that the realm of the human must be supplemented by an understanding of the "meaning-relations" experienced by human beings.
