Your existence is not the result of a predetermined set of events, it's the direct result of your thinking and your actions; according to the existentialist philosophers, you have the freedom to control your life. While offering a useful primer on existentialist thought, Gordon Marino distills insights from such thinkers as Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Camus. Enhancing our sense of meaning in the midst of an uncertain world, Marino interjects anecdotes from his own life to demonstrate how we can use existentialist thought to have truly transformative experiences, drawing positive instruction from our setbacks and negative feelings. "Books can help us survive ... by passing on what is most important about being human before we perish. Marino has produced an honest and moving book of self-help for readers generally disposed to loathe the genre."—Wall Street Journal
