The Facts of Life

This book is a collection of journals, lectures, and reflections by R.D. Laing, exploring philosophical, personal, and biological themes. It delves into the question of identity, "Who Am I?", through a mix of abstract, speculative, and poetic content. Laing shares stories from his own life with humour, discussing topics like sexual reproduction and the psychological impact of birth. The work critiques the 'heartless' nature of science, offering a rich, suggestive, and humane perspective on the complexities of human existence.
