Beschreibung
On Being and Becoming offers a new approach to existentialist thinking as a vital source of philosophical direction for living meaningfully. Overcoming reductive accounts of existentialist thought, this book critically assesses existentialism's varied and diverse origins, its contemporary relevance, and the ways it encourages creative responses to the question of life's meaning.
