The Human Predicament

Are our lives meaningful, or meaningless? Is our inevitable death a bad thing? Would immortality be an improvement? Would it be better, all things considered, to hasten our deaths by suicide? Analytic philosophers have said relatively little about these questions about the meaning of life. When they have tackled the big questions, they have tended to offer comforting, optimistic answers. The Human Predicament invites listeners to take a clear-eyed and unfettered view of the human condition.
