Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In the 6th & last book of the Outsider series, Colin Wilson attacks the doom prophets of existentialism with a different, more accurate philosophy. He notes that the existentialism of the early 20th century is due mainly to poor thinking habits & erroneous self-pity. He describes his idea of peak experiences―times when one feels more vitally alive & interested in the world―& the role of sex & danger as stimuli of some such experiences. An appendix recounts his experience of taking mescalin to investigate modes of consciousness & perception.
