For anyone who has ever wondered about the meaning of life!
In 42, Mark Vernon takes 42 aphorisms from people who've lived life richly-from Marcus Aurelius to Monty Python-as starting points for those of us now who are looking to live life to the full.
Drawing his inspiration from 42 of the funniest, wisest, and quirkiest quotations on the big questions in life, Vernon offers a light-hearted look at what philosophy has to say about life, the Universe, and everything. Deftly interweaving the thoughts of the greatest minds of all time, from Socrates to Monty Python, Vernon provides a platter of witty yet profound discussions on work, love, eternal life, sex, and happiness. From the allure of cats to the nature of wisdom, this rip-roaring read is the perfect companion for the armchair philosopher, and proves that even a little introspection can transform our lives for the better!
Rezension:
"Easy to read, but Vernon is serious and challenging too, in his look at such questions as is ignorance bliss and is love blind?" Sue Baker
