The consolations of Philosophy by Alain de Botton
From the bestselling author of HOW PROUST CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE, this is a wonderfully witty and enlightening look at how philosophy can console, inspire and motivate us. A captivating trip through 2,400 years of Western philosophy, Alain de Botton's keenly awaited new book draws on the lives and work of six key philosophers to examine in turn six of our most common problems:
SOCRATES ON UNPOPULARITY
EPICURUS ON NOT HAVING ENOUGH MONEY
SENECA ON FRUSTRATION
MONTAIGNE ON INADEQUACY
SCHOPENHAUER ON HAVING A BROKEN HEART
NIETZSCHE ON DIFFICULTIES
With his distinctive combination of wit, wisdom and invention, Alain de Botton has written his finest book to date - both an indispensable compendium of advice on how to deal with some of our most familiar woes and a dazzling introduction to the history and uses of philosophy.
