About this title

Synopsis

Rollo May draws on the insights of Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Freud, and other great thinkers to offer a helpful roadmap of the ideas and techniques of existential psychotherapy.

He pays particular attention to the causes of loneliness and isolation, and to our search for stability in an age of anxiety.
