New Book on Individualism by Robert Villegas

INDIANAPOLIS - Dec. 6, 2015 - PRLog -- Greenwood, IN – Prolific writer, Robert Villegas has published a new book entitled Individualism which is an analysis of the concept known as “the Individual versus the Collective.” The book defines Individualism in the following way:

“Individualism is a view of life that identifies the proper role of the self in the universe. It postulates that the Individual is supremely important and that the Individual life is an end in itself.

“As long as man is man - as long as he has the capacity of reason - there will always reside within him a self. Though sometimes submerged beneath the terror and pretense that accompany modern society, the true self thinks about what it needs, not what others need, what it wants, not what others want, what it values, not what others value, seek or do.”

This book not only argues for Individualism but it also analyzes collectivism and exposes the difference between the two views as well as their influence on individual flourishing and culture.
