Abstract

The review, in focus, aims at an analysis of the recent book "Sofferenza, terapia, incontro: etica e crisi della medicina" by Gabriel Marcel, curated by Franco Riva and translated by Paolo Scolari, by Castelvecchi, Milan. It is a small set of essays written by the French philosopher when relating the phenomenon of suffering from sharing the encounter with the other as a therapeutic form.
