Man's Search for Himself

Berätta för mig när boken läggs till

“Analyzes life as we are living it, and the analysis is truthful and profound.”--New York Times

Loneliness, boredom, emptiness: These are the complaints that Rollo May encountered over and over from his patients. In response, he probes the hidden layers of personality to reveal the core of man's integration--a basic and inborn sense of value. Man's Search for Himself is an illuminating view of our predicament in an age of overwhelming anxieties and gives guidance on how to choose, judge, and act during such times.

Nikolai C.har citeratför 2 år sedan
Living in the eternal moment does not mean mere intensity of living (though self-awareness always adds some intensity to one’s experience): nor does it mean living by an absolute dogma, religious or otherwise, or by a moral rule. It means, rather, making one’s decisions in freedom and responsibility, in self-awareness and in accord with one’s own unique character as a person.
