Opis

Colin Wilson revitalised existentialism with a completely new approach. This book, first published in 1966, is a clear summary of his ideas, and also develops them to a new stage. Wilson’s ‘new existentialism’ sees philosophy as an intellectual adventure that aims at a real command of human existence, and this book is its clearest exponent.
