The Book

On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are

Alan Watts

This thought-provoking book by Alan Watts delves into the duality between a person's identity and their relationship with the physical universe. Watts argues that the separation of the self and the world leads to negative consequences such as technology misuse and environmental destruction. Through offering a new understanding of personal identity and the universe, the book presents a refreshing alternative to the feeling of alienation experienced in Western society.
