Description
This comprehensive textbook explores the ideas of six major existential philosophers: Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Simone de Beauvoir. Martin Adams presents a detailed analysis of their philosophical perspectives on human development, critically evaluating how these ideas can inform our understanding of life's meaning and purpose.
Adams' well-structured text offers a unique approach to understanding not only the human experience but also the practice of psychotherapy. By examining the key concepts of existential philosophy, readers will gain insight into the ways in which we strive for meaning and purpose in life.
Published in 2018, this book is an essential resource for anyone interested in psychology, applied psychology, or psychotherapy. It provides a fundamentally different way to understand human development and its relationship to existential philosophy.
