A brilliant, sinuous exploration of family and childhood memory by one of the most original British philosophers of the twentieth century.
Germs is about first things, the seeds from which a life grows, as well as about the illnesses it incurs, the damage it sustains.
Written at the end of his life by Richard Wollheim , one of the major philosophers of the late twentieth century, the book is not the usual story of growing up and getting on but a brilliant recove.
