Recenzje

"A clear and fresh introduction to existentialism packed with insights from an impressively wide range of writers including philosophers, poets, and psychotherapists. It's a timely and astute examination of existentialism's legacy that shows its relevance for modern challenges such as eco-anxiety and the medicalization of the human condition."Skye Cleary, Columbia University"This is a remarkably impressive introduction to existentialism, demonstrating its wide applicability and contemporary relevance. I most strongly recommend this book to students and specialists alike."Patrick Baert, University of Cambridge
