This is truly a powerful thought provoking book, presenting a counterintuitive idea that the author has clearly dedicated himself to.

From my perspective.
Hans Selye has presented a counterintuitive approach to life itself; examining the nature of existence & how we, as human beings experience it in the context of biological stress.
He presents that a philosophy of life is a valuable asset to derive & maintain, referencing historically that this has being identified & applied throughout the history of man.
His counterintuitive argument is that opposed to assuming a generally accepted philosophy such as available from religious movements, why not invest in understanding nature & deriving ones own philosophy.
Selye himself Identified: work, selfishness & gratitude as requirements for a fulfilling life & thus accepted his observation of nature & incorporated them into his philosophy of life in the form of altruistic egotism.
I do not believe Selye’s objective of writing the book was to impose his life philosophy & method of derivation on others, but to empower others to choose their life philosophy & an appropriate derivation method, this is where the book strongly resonated with me personally & motivates me to strongly recommend the work to anybody interested in introspection.

Extremely enjoyable & personally agreeable reading experience.
