Reviews
"Reading Alan Watts challenges us to explore new avenues of thinking, inspires us to lead more fulfilling lives. His legacy lives on in The Wisdom of Insecurity , a work that energetically displays Watts's piercing intellect, razor-sharp wit, and winning grace. For the clarity and wisdom with which it engages timeless concerns crucial to us all, it is unmatched. An important book." - Greg Mortenson , author of Three Cups of Tea "Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of 'writing beautifully the unwritable.'" - Los Angeles Times "The wisdom of insecurity is not a way of evasion, but of carrying on wherever we happen to be stationed-carrying on, however, without imagining that the burden of the world, or even of the next moment, is ours. It is a philosophy not of nihilism but of the reality of the present-always remembering that to be of the present is to be, and candidly know ourselves to be, on the crest of a breaking wave." -Philip Wheelwright, Arts and Letters   "This book proposes a complete reversal of all ordinary thinking about the present state of man. The critical condition of the world compels us to face this problem: how is man to live in a world in which he can never be secure, deprived, as many are, of the consolations of religious belief? The author shows that this problem contains its own solution-that the highest happiness, the supreme spiritual insight and certitude are found only in our awareness that impermanence and insecurity are inescapable and inseparable from life. Written in a simple and lucid style, it is a timely message." - Book Exchange (London), "Anyone whose life needs a course correction would be fortunate to be guided byThe Wisdom of Insecurity. My life still is, some thirty years later." -Deepak Chopra, from the Introduction "Reading Alan Watts challenges us to explore new avenues of thinking, inspires us to lead more fulfilling lives.
