Man's Search for Himself

"Analyzes life as we are living it, & the analysis is truthful & profound."--New York Times
Loneliness, boredom, emptiness: These are the complaints that Rollo May encountered over & over from his patients. In response, he probes the hidden layers of personality to reveal the core of human integration--a basic & inborn sense of value. Man's Search for Himself is an illuminating view of our predicament in an age of overwhelming anxieties & gives guidance on how to choose, judge & act during suchtimes.
