Introducing My Most Comprehensive Work to Date: The Psychology of Being Human

The Psychology of Being Human is my most comprehensive work to date. It explores the emotional, cognitive, and existential structures that shape human experience, bringing together decades of psychological inquiry into a unified framework for understanding the self.

This book marks a turning point in my publishing journey. My earlier works reflected distinct phases of inquiry—experiments in form, tone, and audience, each shaped by the questions I was asking at the time. In September, 2025, The Psychology of Being Human will be released by Depthmark Press, signaling a new chapter in my work: more integrated, more mature, and more expansive in scope.

The Psychology of Being Human is not just a continuation of previous work—it is a deeper articulation of the themes I’ve spent a lifetime exploring.
