Dated. Not exactly clear when this was written, but Mr. Fromm died in 1980. Interested in reading more on humanism.
The commentary regarding unhappiness of isolation, the emptiness of "community", and meaninglessness in life still ring true. The empty life of consumption. Having much does not create well-being.
We need to find a new unity with humanity and nature.

Well organized and interesting, but the guarded optimism of 1976 is utter tragedy today; it’s difficult to read of the solutions and hopes presented here not only knowing that they have not been achieved, but have grown more distant. Regardless, a generally wise and accessible treatise.
