I am currently reading The Denial of Death, and became interested by a passage, which I am unable to find again, to save my life.
The passage is in the first half of the book. In it, Becker writes about why men are willing to go to war. He writes, that men believe that it will always be the man next to him who dies, as opposed to himself. He described this in terms of narcissism, but I don’t remember the exact term that he used.
Could anyone have any idea as to which passage I am referring to, and its location in the book? I forgot to make a note of it, and am really interested in it.
Thanks!
