Man is a mystery, life is a shrine, love is the greatest gift. These spiritualizing truths permeate two works by Erich Fromm ("For the Love of Life," "Can a Person Prevail?"), Combined in this volume. Fromm shows that the key to human nature lies in the future. Life is seen as an endless adventure of creating new human inclinations. Love is a miracle of self-denial, it allows a person to join eternal values, express a specifically human, reveal himself to the limit. A person can prevail if he is able to express his potential.
