Does It Matter?: Essays on Man's Relation to Materialityby Watts, Alan W.Format: Paperback, ReprintPublisher: New World Library Date of publication: 2007-10-28 Shipped From: US (10-14 days) Price: $12.61 Free Delivery Worldwide Description: This is a series of essays representing philosopher Alan Watts's most recent thinking on the astonishing problems of man's relations to his material environment. The basic theme is that civilized man confuses symbol with reality, his ways of describing and measuring the world with the world itself, and thus puts himself into the absurd situation of preferring money to wealth and eating the menu instead of the dinner.Here, a philosopher whose works have been mainly concerned with mysticism and Oriental philosophy gets down to the "nitty-gritty" problems of economics, technology, clothing, cooking, and housing.
