In this issue we continue a venture which met with some critical success that we began in EA 18.2, that is to have more than one person review the same book. Irvin Yalom is a hugely influential writer in the modern Existential tradition and he is equally at ease writing in the academic style as he is as a novelist. The book we have reviewed by two different people is his latest book Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Dread of Death which as can be seen from the reviews is something of a hybrid. We hope that this reinforces the spirit of pluralism and debate that characterises the editorial policy of Existential Analysis.
