Although we have long intellectual traditions of wrestling with mortality, few have ever heard of natality, the term political theorist Hannah Arendt used to describe birth's active role in our lives. In this ambitious, revelatory book, Jennifer Banks begins with Arendt's definition of natality as the "miracle that saves the world" to develop an expansive framework for birth's philosophical, political, spiritual, and aesthetic significance. Banks focuses on seven renowned Western thinkers to reveal a provocative countertradition of birth.

Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 - 13 August 1946) was an English writer.

Vecino de Maquiavelo, catorce años mayor que él, en la República de Florencia, su pragmatismo sujeto a las circunstancias del momento lo oponían en cierto modo al autor de El príncipe.
