This book, written by Hubert Dreyfus and Sean Dorrance Kelly, asks how we can find meaning in our modern, secular age. Dreyfus and Kelly diagnose our modern predicament, trace the historical path we took to get here, identify the outlines of a possible solution (by way of the novel Moby Dick), and flesh this out in the final chapter.
Borrowing heavily from Martin Heidegger, this book is invaluable in the way it brings Heidegger down from the clouds of Being and delivers his ideas to us in a concrete and practical form. Worth reading for its deep insights into the value of the Homeric gods alone (of all things!), this book tops my must-read list for anyone who wants to live a more meaningful life.
