Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

From the author of the bestselling and highly acclaimed HOW PROUST CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE, a wonderfully witty and enlightening look at how philosophy can do the same. The book will be published to coincide with a major Channel 4 series on the same theme, presented by Alain, in April 2000. Alain de Botton pairs six philosophers - Socrates, Epicurus, Seneca, Montaigne, Schopenhauer and Nietzche - with six everyday problems to which they are able to give the most helpful and fascinating answers.
