Denial of Death
Author(s): Ernest Becker
Challenging the Freudian school of thought, this book portrays humans as constantly struggling against inherent ambiguities in themselves and the world, while trying to define themselves to achieve immortality. It sees the denial of death as man's attempt to distinguish himself beyond the grave.
