Description
Philosophical wisdom and practical advice for overcoming middle age's challenges. Kieran Setiya explores how philosophy can help you thrive in adulthood and beyond. In this self-help book, Setiya confronts the inevitable difficulties of growing older, drawing on the ideas of influential thinkers such as Aristotle, Schopenhauer, and John Stuart Mill, alongside his own experience. He offers surprising insights into the value of missing out, the overrated concept of options, and the benefits of meditation. Setiya's approach combines imaginative ideas with practical advice, making a wry yet passionate case for philosophy as a guide to life.
