For many years, Newman has presented an annual lecture at Town Hall in Manhattan where he shares a philosophical perspective on broad topics in popular culture.
Performance of a Lifetime
A Practical-Philosophical Guide to the Joyous Life
By Fred Newman with Phyllis Goldberg

In the sequel to Let's Develop!, Newman shows the way to living joyously through philosophizing. He teaches non-philosophers how to engage in the activity of philosophizing — what he calls asking big questions about little things. Through practical example, Newman shares with his readers how appreciating the banal and the magic of everyday life can be a profoundly joyous experience. (Castillo International, 1996)
