Description:
When we look back from the vantage point of the 21st century and ask ourselves what the previous century was all about, what do we see? Our first inclination is to focus on historical events: the 20th century was the age of two devastating world wars, of totalitarian regimes and terrible atrocities like the Holocaust “ śthe age of extremes,ť to use Hobsbawm™s famous phrase. But in this new book, the philosopher Peter Sloterdijk argues that we will never understand the 20th century if we focus on events and ideologies. Rather, in his view, the predominant motif of the 20th century is what Badiou called a passion for the real, which manifests itself as the will to actualize the truth directly in the here and now. Drawing on his Spheres trilogy, Sloterdijk interprets the actualization of the real in the 20th century as a passion for economic and technological śantigravitationť. The rise of consumerism and the easing of the burdens of human life by the constant deployment of new technologies have killed off the kind of radicalism that was rooted in the belief that power would rise from a material base of production. If the 20th century can still inspire us today, it is because the fundamental shift that it brought about opened the way for a critique of extremist reason, a post-Marxist theory of enrichment and a general economy of energy resources based on excess and dissipation. While developing his highly original interpretation of the 20th century, Sloterdijk also addresses a series of related topics including the meaning of the Anthropocene, the domestication of

Light scent, lathers surprisingly well
Like the reviews said, it lathers up nicely and rinses away very easily. I washed three large dogs (2 with short coats) and used up almost 1/2 the bar. Not sure if that's a great value or not. But at least I didn't have liquid shampoo dripping off their backs and running down the drain!
While washing, the smell was nice, but it definitely didn't linger. Didn't cause any itchiness or irritation.

Will be using this from now on
Australian Shepherd is all fluffy! I always use a conditioner after any shampoo though. But, this soap lathered up great. We need to always look for more natural products especially for our pets.

Nothing EVER works, like advertised.
Scent: Alpine Meadow
I love this dog soap. It works awesome on my lab/ husky mix. No more dropping wet shampoo bottles, reaching for them, and my boy shaking water everywhere. Lol, seriously this works great! Smells great and took the stink out of his rubber collar. Nothing else has worked short of buying another. You won't be disappointed.

Love the ingredients!
I usually don’t write reviews, but absolutely love this bar soap for my dog. It has all natural ingredients which helped his skin beneath his thick German shepherd coat. It suds up well, but rinsed off fast. The benefits lasted days and made his coat, silky and shiny and healthy.
