Description
This self-help book with a philosophical twist explores the challenges of adulthood and middle age. Kieran Setiya offers practical advice and surprising insights to help you navigate life's inevitable difficulties.
Setiya draws on a range of thinkers, from Aristotle to Simone de Beauvoir, to provide imaginative ideas and consolations for mortality. He also shares his own experience and explores the benefits of meditation in finding peace and purpose in the present.
With wisdom and wit, Setiya makes a case for philosophy as a guide to life, showing how it can help you thrive in the face of uncertainty and adversity.
