Being and Life’s
“Midwest Book Review”

Being And Life: On Becoming One’s Being is a philosophical reflection upon ontology and its correlation to individual and collective human well-being. Contemplative author Scott K. Smith postulates that it is not the deepest human nature that causes society’s problems, but rather our failure to be our being that is to blame. Chapters discuss theories of alienation, the essence of good and evil, the ego boundary and protecting one’s “realself,” and much more. Striving to delineate ontological theory in terms accessible to the lay reader, Being and Life is a welcome introduction to this school of self-help philosophy that centers upon the existence of the self.
