This book provides a unique perspective in helping the reader to understand K's knowledge and understanding of humans and humanity by approaching it through his dialogue on particular questions of inquiry with a diverse group of brilliant thinkers. The dialogue approach in the book has offered me a window into K's understanding that greatly complimented my understanding of him from reading his lectures. The interaction of two great minds inquiring the great questions of life is a joy to observe and helps to gain deeper insight into the most existential questions of life.
