What is the purpose of life on Earth?

Dr. Jacob Needleman frames man's role on the planet in a completely new and
fresh way, moving beyond the usual environmental concerns to reveal how the
care and maintenance of a world is something vital and basic to our
existence as authentic human beings.

In some of his most deeply affecting writing, Needleman draws on his
childhood experiences with a terminally ill friend whose impending death
forces the young boys to face questions of the meaning of existence at an
early age---questions that Needleman carried with him in his explorations
of science and philosophy throughout his career as a scholar of religions.
The conclusions he reaches will give all of us a new sense of the purpose
of our lives and the planet we live on.
