The Birth and Death of Meaning: An Interdisciplinary Perspective on the Problem of Man

The Birth and Death of Meaning is an ambitious exploration of the nature of man using Anthropology, Sociology, Psychoanalysis, and Political Science. It begins with the evolution of consciousness which presents a variety of paradoxes which man addresses with defenses and denials. These defenses and denials are then built into a society. The book suggests that in order for man to progress and for democracy to work, man has to learn to live with the truth which is fraught with ambiguity and contradiction. There are periodic comments that do date the book to the 1970's when it was written.

If you are struggling with your self-consciousness, read the book and think again what is your self-consciousness is all about.
