Fighting for Life

Contest, Sexuality, and Consciousness
Book • 2013
In 'Fighting for Life', Walter J. Ong examines the significance of contest in biological evolution, the growth of consciousness, and its effects on social, linguistic, and intellectual history.

He discusses how agonistic drives manifest in sports, politics, business, academia, and religion, and how these drives can lead to a deeper understanding of self and human freedom.
