Servan-Schreiber, Jean-Louis The Return of Courage
Reading, MA Addison-Wesley 1987 0201122073 / 9780201122077 First American Edition Hard Cover, Cloth Near Fine Near Fine Jacket
Building on the French existentialist tradition of Sartre and Camus, distinguished French journalist and television personality Jean-Louis Servan-Schreiber helps us confront the challenges of an increasingingly complex world by drawing on our great, but neglected, inner resource - courage. For Servan-Schreiber, courage is the missing link that can give meaning to our lives. It is not the classical courage used in times of war or similar adversity, but rather what Servan-Schreiber calls daily courage that allows us to live life to the fullest. With wit and vision, the author cuts through the message beamed at us that in order to be happy we must have eternal youth, power and wealth. He lays out compelling strategies for recognizing and confronting the negative side of life - the frailty, anxiety, solitude and ignorance - in order to achieve true happiness and peace. 144 pages, the cloth binding is an ivory color with light darkening at the bottom corners. The jacket has a small darkened mark on the back bottom near the spine. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
