Description
Adam Phillips explores the concept of balance in this thought-provoking new book. He examines various aspects of life, including the role of excess and wisdom, the development of children's minds, and the nature of happiness. Drawing on literature and psychoanalysis, Phillips presents an open-minded and engaging argument that encourages readers to think critically about their values and beliefs. Through his unique blend of enquiry and analysis, he sheds new light on timeless questions and concerns. By exploring these themes, Phillips offers a fresh perspective on what it means to live a balanced life, one that is informed by literature and psychoanalysis.
