Description
The Denial of Death is a profound exploration of the human condition, one that challenges the conventional wisdom of our time. Ernest Becker's Pulitzer Prize-winning work presents a bold and thought-provoking argument about the nature of humanity and our place in the world.
Becker contends that our existence is a defence against the knowledge of our own mortality, and that we create in order to transcend our physical limitations and become part of something greater. This 'immortality project' is the driving force behind human civilisation, and it is a force that continues to shape our lives today.
This book is a powerful and thought-provoking work that sheds new light on the human experience. Written in a clear and accessible style, it offers a compelling vision of what it means to be human, and challenges readers to think deeply about their own place in the world.
