The Runner And The Path: An Athlete's Quest For Meaning In Postmodern Corporate America

Dean Ottati works for a large corporation and seeks real meaning in his life, beyond the hardball negotiations that make up his long workday. He feels that capitalism has made us all poorer-slaves of the clock, pursuing the illusory. To find real substance, he runs-on trails and roads and beaches, alone or with friends, constantly challenging himself physically and intellectually. He peels back layers of hardness from his heart. He finds a new balance in the forces of family, work, love, solitude, money, happiness, and time. Ottati's quest takes him on a fascinating path toward a common-sense enlightenment.
