Dying to Self and Detachment

By James Kellenberger

Book Overview

Exploring the religious category of dying to self, this book aims to resolve contemporary issues that relate to detachment. Kellenberger explores the key issues that arise for detachment, including the place of the individual's will in detachment, the relationship of detachment to desire, to attachment to persons, and to self-love and self-respect, and issues of contemporary secular detachment such as inducement via chemicals. This book heeds the relevance of the religious virtue of detachment for those living in the twenty-first-century.
