Description

Mini Philosophy: A Small Book of Big Ideas Explore the big questions in life with bite-sized portions of philosophy from some of the greatest minds of the last 2500 years. From Sun Tzu's strategy for winning at board games to Freud's insights into our 'death drive', this book offers fascinating meditations on the world and our place in it. You'll discover why pleasure is better than pain, why people enjoy watching scary movies, and why De Beauvoir believed the mothering instinct is a myth. With mini-philosophy, you'll expand your mind and bend it too - all in a concise and accessible way. With its diverse range of ideas and thinkers, Mini Philosophy is a thought-provoking companion for anyone curious about the world and its big questions.
