This book argues that the search for life's meaning is vital in terms of one's personal identity, developing a sense of what really matters to you and others.

The book seeks to enlarge one's understanding of the possible meanings of life on a large scale, as well as explore the many meanings in life for individuals. Drawing on ancient and contemporary sources, the book provides a guide for exploring the most promising perspectives on life's meaning, philosophically and religiously. Its purpose is to aid readers in making up their own minds in discovering meaning in life.
