Book Review Saturdays: Existentialism and the Meaning of Life

Once I grasped what Frankl was going on about in "Man's Search For Meaning", I was left with a problem: if it's up to us to create our own meaning, how does one go about doing that?

As luck would have it, a few years later I stumbled across the Great Courses series "No Excuses: Existentialism and the Meaning of Life" by Robert Soloman.

This is the perfect follow-up to "Man's Search For Meaning", as Soloman takes us all on a tour of existentialism and existentialist thought. He's not a dogmatist, and existentialism to him doesn't mean nihilism or rejecting faith (although it might have meant that to some of the authors he introduces us to).

I enjoyed this even better than Frank's book. It's an audio book/audio course. If you're interested in this topic, this is a must-consume series.

I've moved!

Locals is turning off their free accounts and I've decided that I'd rather go back to maintaining my own site than sign up for any more "free" services that end up changing the conditions of service later.

The new site is just like this one, only no "locals" in the name. It's https://danielbmarkham.com

Please give it a shot, and please let me know if you have any problems signing up. I think I have the configuration down but you guys will be the first 100 or so to sign up, so there'll probably be some snags.
