"An extraordinary book on sex and civilization....An important contribution to contemporary morality." -- NewsweekThe heart of man's dilemma, according to Rollo May, is the failure to understand the real meaning of love and will, their source and interrelation. Bringing fresh insight to these concepts, May shows how we can attain a deeper consciousness. "Wise, rich, witty and indispensable....It should have led any list of important books." -- John Leonard, New York Times
