Existentialism and Human Existence An Account of Five Major Philosophers

The author has brought together, in one source, an interpretation of five primary sources for existential philosophy in the twentieth century, from Edmund Husserl to Martin Heidegger. The text reveals the continuity present in a century of existential writings and reaffirms the importance of this philosophical movement for a contemporary understanding of philosophy and its role in communicating the ongoing wisdom that comes from the human need for self-understanding.
