Overview

We are often told to think for ourselves, forge our own path, and stand out from the crowd. But what do these phrases truly mean - deeply, philosophically, and spiritually? What does it mean to truly be yourself, to choose YOUR own path, to be free and creative in everything YOU do, resisting the pressure to fit in? In her book, author and former management consultant Ms Dunne takes readers on an accessible yet engaging journey. Examining the contributions of philosophical and political schools of thought, from the Stoics including Cicero and Marcus Aurelius, Enlightenment philosophers John Locke and Immanuel Kant to existentialists Sartre, Camus, and Heidegger - as well as spiritual texts from the Bible to the Upanishads, Creating You is perfect for readers seeking an accessible introduction to both Western and Eastern philosophical thought. Yet the author's focus remains firmly on the central question of authenticity: how to think for yourself amidst the chorus of the crowd, and how to be yourself in a world that often favours conformity.
