Is Life Worth Living? is a tiny book about some of life's big questions. How do you find meaning in your life? Why do people fall into despair and depression? And how can these feelings be overcome? Almost fifty years before Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, William James discovers that feelings of pessimism and melancholy can be defeated through the power of action and struggle, and that life's meaning is created through your own actions.

William James' treatise on religious experiences attempts to cogently explain aspects of psychology related to mystical experiences.James was most interested in the direct experiences of people, which they and sometimes observers would afterwards claim as religious or spiritual in tone. Whether the experience was deemed a mystical connection, or as a sign of prophecy or other religious significance, and how these could translate into future significance in faiths - such as the designation of saintliness - are topics which concern the author. The book itself is divided into twenty different lectures, each of which focuses upon religion and its relation to psychology. James makes a distinction between religion conceived by a healthy mind, and religious experiences which denote some form of psychic malady or illness, a phenomenon James refers to as 'the sick soul'.
