Editor’s Note: Brooks earlier book, The Social Animal, was featured here some time ago. This guy has a unique talent for de-mystifying the deeply philosophical and complex issues surrounding life’s meaning. Another rare trait is self-awareness and a willingness to admit that neither he nor the people whose lives he features in this book have or had the “answers.” Very compelling stuff to add to my journey of self-discovery and adding meaning to my life, perhaps it will serve the same purpose for you.
Favorite excerpt: “Philosophy is likely to be a tension between competing half-truths.”
