In Doing, Jean-Luc Nancy, one of the most prominent and lucid
articulators of contemporary French theory and philosophy, examines
the precarious but urgent relationship between being and doing. His
book is not so much a call to action as a summons to more vigorous
thinking, the examination and reflection that must precede any
effective action. The first section of the book considers this
matter tersely: Jean-Luc Nancy's quickness of language and grace of
humor lead the reader carefully past the dangers of
oversimplification, toward a general awareness of meaningful being.
In the last section, Nancy examines the realities of terrorist
actions-specifically those that shocked Paris a few years ago, and
more generally the frightening world of politics without
conscience, where conscience is the root of all thinking.
