About this listen

 The activity of eating transcends the physiological need for "fueling" and provides clues for understanding human nature, explains Leon Kass, physician, biologist, and professor of philosophy at the University of Chicago. In this program, Kass discusses his book, The Hungry Soul, in which he explores eating as a guide to morality and communal life. Then, Brother Peter Reinhart talks about the art of breadmaking as a metaphor for spiritual life.(P) and ©1997 Mars Hill Audio Philosophy
