More about the book
David Benatar challenges the common belief that existence is inherently beneficial. He argues that individuals tend to overestimate the quality of their lives and, in reality, face significant harms from being brought into existence. Through this provocative perspective, the book invites readers to reconsider the value of life and the implications of existence itself.
