About this product

Product Information

Proof of a ground-breaking theory- that the fear of death is the hidden motive behind almost everything we do It guides our thoughts and actions, from the great art we create to the devastating wars we wage. It's the real reason why we buy expensive cars and crave fame. Think you're not constantly thinking about death? This book shows it's at the heart of life. Psychologists Sheldon Solomon, Jeff Greenberg, and Tom Pyszczynski have spent over twenty-five years researching the many ways that fear of death - and our desire to transcend it - guides our behaviour. Their groundbreaking theory offers a compelling new paradigm for understanding the choices we make in life reveals how we can better come to terms with death and learn to lead lives of courage, creativity, and compassion.

  • Why you do stuff. An answer.

    Would seem to solve the mystery of the human condition. As with all books of this kind i scanned the web for criticism and could find only instances of professional sour grapes in that the critical academics wished they had seen this connection. Make friends with the worm at your core.
