Each has its own concern: the first with theoretical understanding, and with human conduct in general; the second with an ideal mode of human relationship which the author has called civil association; and the third with that ambiguous, historic association commonly called a modern European state.\u003cbr\u003e Running through the work is Professor Oakshott's belief in philosophical reflection as an adventure: the adventure of one who seeks to understand in other terms what he already understands, and where the understanding is sought is a disclosure of the conditions of the understanding enjoyed and not a substitute for it. Its most appropriate expression is an essay, which, he writes, \"does not dissemble the conditionality of the conclusions it throws up and although it may enlighten it does not instruct.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Oakeshott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarendon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.42h x 5.54w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198277583\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clarendon Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40625311907955,"sku":"9.7802E+12","price":154.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_f0befd38-a35d-4aa1-8d9d-fafd92048729.jpg?v=1670944564","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/on-human-conduct-9780198277583","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
