The Consolations of Philosophy
Botton,Alain de
Category: SOCIAL SCIENCES / PHILOSOPHY / General
The review:
de Botton's latest tome is an erudite guide which aims to show how philosophy can help us
live more fulfilling lives. Divided into six chapters, it draws on the wisdom of Socrates,
Epicurus, Seneca, Montaigne, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche to tackle common human
problems. Witty and wise, The Consolations of Philosophy is a brilliantly accessible but
delightfully incisive introduction to the work of some of the world's finest thinkers.-(Nick
Rennison, Waterstone's Online)
