I read this book a couple of years ago. It's a good example of how to popularize a complicated subject without dumbing it down. It stands with other useful intros to existentialism, such as those classics of the 1950s, William Barrett's "Irrational Man" and Colin Wilson's "The Outsider" (which is more a work of lit-crit than anything else).

Thanks! It is a really good book. I don't know Irrational Man either and still haven't read The Outsider!
