Existentialism Is a Humanism by Jean-Paul Sartre
4.0

A great introduction to Sartre's conception of existentialism and phenomenology. Recommended for those looking to delve into his denser works. In addressing the charges leveled upon him and upon existentialism (charged as a philosophy of quietism; a philosophy that turns its back on man), Sartre expounds on the premiere concerns of the philosophy. Existentialism Is a Humanism serves as a sort of Sparksnotes for existentialism.
