Synopsis :

The will to live makes life worth living. It keeps us going when the going gets tough. It is the inner strength we summon up when we really need it. This book offers a systematic guide to the principal reasons why we live and why we are here. It contains a wide range of possible answers to the question ‘What are we here for?’ A list of 36 answers is arranged and analysed systematically. We all face the problem of living and of making the most of our lives. The more answers we consider, the more we can see the possibilities of life and living. Thus, the aim is to bolster the will to live and build up the inner strength needed to combat the self-deprecatory and suicidal responses to life to which we are all prone if we lapse into a negative frame of mind.
