Loneliness, Depression, Anxiety, and Death: Our Existential Predicament

parkx032 — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 16:31:42 +0000

LONELINESS, DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, AND DEATH:

OUR EXISTENTIAL PREDICAMENT

Have you noticed a loneliness that cannot be solved by love?
Are you sometimes aware of a depression not caused by circumstances?
Do you have free-floating existential anxiety?
Is your 'fear of death' out of proportion to the actual threat?
These 4 and 7 other similar phenomena will be explored in this electronic group.
Our method of exploration is looking deeply into ourselves.

This cyber-seminar will take place by means of an already-established Yahoo Group
called The Existential Freedom Group.
Each month, beginning as soon as 10 people have the book and are ready to discuss it,
we will read and discuss one chapter from a book called:
Our Existential Predicament:
Loneliness, Depression, Anxiety, and Death.

Over 50 pages from this book can be read on the Internet.
Just click the title above.
Students and faculty at the University of Minnesota
will find this book in Wilson Library.
And the publisher—Existential Books—offers to donate this book
to any public or academic library that will agree to put it on the shelves.
(Here are the details about this offer of free books for libraries.)

Readers who would prefer to own a copy
should buy it directly from the publisher.

A comprehensive course description will appear if you click those words.
