Focusing on individualism through the lens of a passion theory, the book explores how passions shape personal identity and social connections. It contrasts the detrimental effects of ego-driven passions prevalent in modern society with the positive influence of empathetic and solidaristic passions, particularly illustrated by the concept of the gift. This unique approach offers a fresh perspective on the interplay between personal desires and communal bonds.
