With its supplements on religion, politics and art, and a closer look at the Heidegger-Sartre link, the book is now an even more formidable challenge to those who still doubt this philosophy’s credentials.’ \u003cb\u003e– Alastair Hannay\u003c\/b\u003e, University of Oslo\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e‘In this clear and superbly written book, David Cooper provides a thematic presentation of the central ideas of existentialism. He has produced an invaluable work for students and general readers who can appreciate a well-argued, straightforward account of existentialism that does not sacrifice the richness of the ideas that make the philosophy of existentialism so engaging.’ – \u003cb\u003eJames Risser\u003c\/b\u003e, Seattle University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface to Second Edition. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Preliminaries:\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
