Rollo May

The Discovery of Being

"Clear, accurate, and interesting. There is no better short introduction to the existential approach to psychology." —Dallas Morning News

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.

"A brisk, clear, popular introduction to existential psychology/psychotherapy. . . [Rollo May] makes a good case for it as a pragmatically broad and flexible method. . . . A solid, stimulating presentation." —Kirkus Reviews

"With his vision of what man can be, Rollo May is the man of tomorrow. . . . For many years he has been one of psychology's persistent pioneers." — Psychology Today
