First line
Te Pito O Te Henua, the Navel of the World, is the most isolated inhabited island there is, thirty-six hundred kilometers from the South American coast, two thousand kilometers from the nearest inhabited island-tiny Pitcairn, where the mutineers from the Bounty settled with their Tahitian women.
From the rear cover
"Dangerous Emotions is a sustained philosophical, phenomenological, and personal series of reflections on the role of passions and emotions, visceral responses, and human reactions which bypass and surpass the role of reason. Lingis has a unique perspective, a position already well fortified in many texts he has published, whereby he blends elements of philosophical texts (most notably Heidegger, Hegel, Merleau-Ponty, Lvinas, and Neitzsche) with strange and intense experiences from everyday life across different geographies and cultures. He is clearly one of the most brilliant philosophers of his generation. His book explores those moments and events usually unnoticed by philosophy, which philosophy needs to address if it is to provide us with a way of understanding life and living it well."--Elizabeth Grosz, author of Fluid Bodies: Toward a Corporeal Feminism
