- Abstract
The book "Menschenbild und Gesellschaft" by Christian von Ferber, edited by Alexander Brandenburg, contains texts on philosophical anthropology, sociology, and medical sociology. The author reflects on the changes in sociology over time and emphasizes the importance of a practice-oriented sociology. The first part of the book deals with the life and work of Helmuth Plessner, a philosopher and sociologist. The second part discusses various topics such as art, death, freedom, social psychiatry, and social research in relation to an anthropological view of humanity and societal connections. Von Ferber emphasizes the importance of individual counseling, political participation, and new forms of organization.
