- Summary:
- "Shakespeare is worth reading, this book argues, because his works help us to make epistemological weakness into a way of life. I show how his works offer a means for coming to terms with basic uncertainties about freedom, the world's abundance, and the demands of love and social life"-- Provided by publisher.
