Average Rating: Rating: - Excellent "There is no meaning to life except the meaning man gives his life by the unfolding of his powers." This sentence may be one of the most important themes in this wonderful book. Rating: - Away from inhuman and legalistic ethical standards... ....and toward a celebration of human-centered values: Fromm makes his case for it in psychological terms not to be missed. (He'd have liked Herbert's distinction between law and justice.) And yet, and yet...while this book is splendid, I can't buy making man the measure of all things; somehow there ought to be a recognition that some situations may harm and even kill the self (as in "self-actualization") that nevertheless feed the soul. Anyhow, well worth the read. Rating: - Simply too good... The best from Fromm. I have had this book for the last ten years. Wanted a new one and was surprised to find it still in print. This speaks volumnes of the value of this book. From the first page to the last, vintage Fromm. We are also recommending this book as a text for our sophomore students at SUNY.
