About the book
Ernest Becker develops his thesis on the denial of death and the human search for meaning. Exploring how societies build symbolic systems to escape awareness of mortality, Becker examines the psychological roots of human conflicts, violence, and illusion.
A provocative and profound work that complements his earlier reflections, offering insights into the nature of collective and individual psychological defenses.
