Making More Meaning: A Revised Version of Maximizing Meaning

By Bob Lichtenbert

"Making More Meaning" is a revized version of "Maximizing Meaning, which is an abridged version of "Making Meaning," the first work to fully develop this concept. It starts by defining and describing the very vague word "meaning" as "usually having a positive impact." The book then discusses how having enough meaning is a life-or-death question and one that can much effect a person's mental and physical health. Then this book treats the amazing inner cry for meaning and the new field of meaningology.

Next it treats the following eight main ways to make meaning: (1) having quality relationships, (2) creating a sense of community, (3) engaging in genuine dialogue, (4) finding fulfilling work, (5) acquiring possessions, (6) interpreting artworks, (7) seeking God and (8) knowing intangibles (nonphysical ideas and values such as goodness, justice and truth).

The book concludes by treating the following major issues involved in maximizing meaning: making more meaning, meaning ought to be primarily objective, time and meaning and the meaning of life, with examples from how it is implied in Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
