About the book
Between 1974 and 1976, at his home in Locarno, Switzerland, Erich Fromm drafted far more chapters for To Have or to Be than that 1976 book used, and some of the unused material is gathered here. The chapters concern the steps a person can take toward being rather than having. Fromm describes a way of living grounded in honest self-analysis and the self-awareness it brings, and he warns against expecting enlightenment without effort or a life free of pain. He rejects the shortcuts sold by psycho-gurus and the spiritual smorgasbord of consumer culture, proposing instead a route through psychoanalysis and meditation. The volume, first published in 1992, supplements one of his most popular works.
