Reader reviews for Denial of Death

From the publisher

Drawing from religion and the human sciences, particularly psychology after Freud, the author attempts to demonstrate that the fear of death is man's central concern.

First line

The first thing we have to do with heroism is to lay bare its underside, show what gives human heroics its specific nature and impetus.
