PHILOSOPHY FOR LIFE: AND OTHER DANGEROUS SITUATIONS

Book ID/图书代码： 11340011B50070

English Summary/英文概要： In his engaging new book, Jules Evans explains how philosophy quite literally saved his life – and shows how we can make use of it everyday in our own.

Co-founder of the London Philosophy Club, visiting research fellow at Queen Mary University, columnist for the School of Life and journalist and blogger, Jules imagines his dream school, with a rowdy faculty that includes 15 of the greatest and most colourful philosophers the world has ever known. Each of them teaches a technique we can use to transform our selves and live better lives.

These practical techniques are animated by the extraordinary stories of real people who are using them today – from soldiers and firemen, to gangsters and astronauts. This is philosophy for the street, for the workplace, for the battlefield, for love, for life.
Jules Evans is bright new star in the field of contemporary thinking and philosophy. As he explains, philosophy quite literally saved his life – and in his brilliant new book he’ll show how we can make use of it every day in our own.
