When this important work was originally published in 1950–the first book in this country on anxiety–it was hailed as a work ahead of its time. In the first modern book on anxiety following Freud and Kierkegaard, the psychologist Rollo May brings order and lucidity to the subject of anxiety.

In the revised edition of this now-classic study, the distinguished author of Love and Will deepens his exploration into anxiety theory. Dr. May challenges the idea that mental health means living without anxiety, and he explores anxiety’s potential for self-realization as well as ways to avoid its destructive aspects.

In this revised edition of his classic work

Rollo May challenges the idea that “mental health is living without anxiety,” believing it is essential to being human. He explores how it can relieve boredom, sharpen sensibilities, and produce the tension necessary to preserve human existence. May sees a link extending from anxiety to intelligence, creativity, and originality, and guides the listener away from destructive ways to positive ways of dealing with anxiety. He convincingly proposes that anxiety can impel personal change, as it is only by confronting and coping with it that self-realization can occur.
