Overview
What does it truly mean to live in freedom? In a culture that often confuses freedom with mere choice or self-assertion, How to Live in Freedom Being Yourself invites readers to recover a deeper and richer understanding of human liberty. Drawing on philosophy, history, and lived experience, Aniceto Masferrer shows that authentic freedom is inseparable from truth, responsibility, and love. Rather than presenting abstract theories, this book explores freedom as a personal journey: one that calls readers to integrity, courage, and solidarity with others. It examines how freedom has been shaped and distorted in Western culture, why autonomy without responsibility ultimately enslaves, and how genuine liberty requires both limits and meaning. Written with clarity and conviction, How to Live in Freedom Being Yourself is both a reflection and a guide. It challenges readers to think critically about their own lives, to resist the false promises of an individualism without roots, and to embrace the adventure of becoming truly free. For students, seekers, and anyone longing for a more authentic life, this book offers a fresh vision of freedom--one that is at once demanding, hopeful, and profoundly human.

Reviews
""This book on liberty is accessible, clear, insightful, and above all correct about the true meaning of liberty and its value for the common good."" --Mortimer Newlin Stead Sellers, Regents Professor of the University System of Maryland ""This concise and thoughtful book illuminates the journey toward a coherent life--one grounded in responsibility, purpose, and human maturity."" --Vicente Bellver, Professor of Law, University of Valencia, Spain ""A wonderful guide inviting us to return to the basics of life against the backdrop of a world increasingly dominated by silo mentalities and echo chambers. Masferrer again displays his keenly sophisticated, yet refreshingly unassuming, craft of communicating."" --Markus G. Puder, The Honorable Herbert W. Christenberry Professor of Law, Loyola University New Orleans ""Masferrer urges us to contemplate, to reflect, and to dialogue as we construct a personal project, something greater than individual or professional goals. He stresses the centrality of gratitude, forgiveness, and, above all, love as we approach each moment."" --M.C. Mirow, Professor of Law, Florida International University College of Law, Miami
