Freedom and Destiny

"May is an existential analyst who deservedly enjoys a reputation among both general and critical readers as an accessible and insightful social and psychological theorist. . . . Freedoms characteristics, fruits, and problems; destinys reality; death; and therapys place in the confrontation between freedom and destiny are examined. . . . Poets, social critics, artists, and other thinkers are invoked appropriately to support Mays theory of freedom and destinys interdependence."--<em>Library Journal</em> "Especially instructive, even stunning, is Dr. Mays willingness to respect mystery. . . .There is, too, at work throughout the book a disciplined yet relaxed clinical mind, inclined to celebrate . . . what Flannery OConnor called mystery and manners, and to do so in a tactful, meditative manner."--Robert Coles, <em>America</em>
