Originally delivered as a lecture in Paris in 1945, "Existentialism and Humanism" is Sartre's seminal defence of his original doctrine of existentialism and a plan for its practical application to everyday human life. Over the past fifty years, the writings of Sartre have probably been more influential in the West than those of any other thinker, and this exploration of one of the central tenets of his philosophical thought has become the essential introduction to his work, and a fundamental text to all students of philosophy.

"'Man is condemned to be free' Jean-Paul Sartre" This is such a Fantastic book! I have read it and re-read it so many times, its the simplest, clearest, shortest, easiest, most fascinating and most persuasive philosophy book I've come across. If you've ever found yourself being cynical about the existent of God and wondered how you can live your life as a good person without the necessity of subscribing to religion then you will enjoy this! If not, you should still read it anyway, it's mind-expanding stuff presented in a really simple way for the everyday person! - Stuart Write a review
