I reviewed the books The Denial of Death, and Escape From Evil, both by Ernest Becker. I think, taken together, Denial of Death & Escape From Evil are the most important books I have read in the last 10 years.

In the 'Expertise of Death' episode of the The Black Goat podcast (https://www.theblackgoatpodcast.com/posts/the-expertise-of-death/) the hosts declare Terror Management Theory "dead in the water" because the results of a foundational TMT study could not be reproduced (Many Labs 4 https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/vef2c). Would this be considered the general consensus around TMT at this time?
