Why do people flood into churches during disasters, only to disappear weeks later?
Why do humans, religious or not, instinctively reach toward something beyond themselves in moments of crisis?
Are You Alone? is a philosophical and humanistic exploration of humanity's deepest longing - the universal impulse to lean on something greater than ourselves. Drawing from psychology, philosophy, history, and comparative religion, this book traces the arc of human dependence from ancient Egyptian temples to modern YouTube algorithms, from Freud and Viktor Frankl to the Gilgamesh Epic and the streets of post-tsunami Japan.
Written for believers and skeptics alike, this book does not preach. It observes. It asks honest questions about why every human civilization has built systems of meaning, and why none of them have fully satisfied the hunger they were designed to fill. Along the way, it examines Buddhism, Islam, Confucianism, shamanism, secular ideologies, prosperity theology, and the quiet religion of self-improvement - revealing that beneath every tradition lies the same restless human heart.
The journey leads, unexpectedly, to a figure who refused to fit any religious mold - who rejected the crowd's expectations, offered no easy comfort, and yet spoke directly to the five hungers no philosophy has ever fully answered: meaning, true connection, forgiveness, a new beginning, and something beyond death.
Are You Alone? is not a book that pushes you through any door. But by the last page, you may find yourself standing in front of one.
재난이 닥치면 사람들은 교회와 사찰로 몰려든다. 그리고 몇 주 후, 아무 일도 없었다는 듯 사라진다.
왜 인간은 위기의 순간에 본능적으로 무언가를 향해 손을 모으는가. 그리고 왜 그 손은 다시 내려오는가.
이 책은 그 질문에서 시작합니다.
종교인도, 무신론자도, 불교 신자도, 가톨릭 신자도 경계 없이 읽을 수 있는 인문 철학서입니다.
심리학, 철학, 역사, 비교종교학을 가로지르며, 인류가 무언가에 기대어 살아온 긴 여정을 추적합니다.
프로이트와 빅터 프랭클, 길가메시 서사시와 이집트의 심판 의례, 마르크스주의와 북한의 신격화,
현대인의 유튜브 종교까지. 시대와 문화를 넘어 인간이 기대는 방식은 놀랍도록 같았습니다.
이 책은 설교하지 않습니다. 다만 묻습니다. 왜 모든 문명이 의미의 체계를 만들었는가.
왜 그 체계들은 끝내 인간의 가장 깊은 허기를 채우지 못했는가.
그 질문들의 끝에서, 독자는 예상치 못한 한 인물을 만납니다.
어떤 종교적 틀에도 맞지 않았고, 군중의 기대를 거절했고, 쉬운 위로를 주지 않았으면서도,
어떤 철학도 완전히 답하지 못한 다섯 가지 갈망에 정면으로 응답한 사람.
이 책은 당신을 어떤 문으로 밀어 넣지 않습니다.
다만 마지막 페이지를 덮을 때, 당신은 어느새 문 앞에 서 있을 것입니다.

Descripción de la tienda
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
