About this Item

Description:

1st Edition; 3rd Printing; Clean, tight, unmarked; blue cloth covers with silver titles on spine and silver swirl on front cover; very light wear to corners and spine extremes; large chip to upper edge and small chips to corners of dust jacket; several closed tears to tears on dj; blue dust jacket is age tanned but still bright; Watts' message for an age of anxiety is as powerful today as it was when this modern classic was first published. We spend too much time trying to anticipate and plan for the future; too much time lamenting the past. We often miss the pleasures of the moment in our anxious efforts to ensure the next moment is as enjoyable. Drawing from Eastern philosophy and religion, Watts argues that in order to lead a fulfilling life, one must embrace the presentlive fully in the now. Seller Inventory # 006193
