About This Book
From the internationally heralded author of How Proust Can Change Your Life
comes this remarkable new book that presents the wisdom of some of the greatest
thinkers of the ages as advice for our day to day struggles.
Solace for the broken heart can be found in the words of Schopenhauer. The
ancient Greek Epicurus has the wisest, and most affordable, solution to cash
flow problems. A remedy for impotence lies in Montaigne. Seneca offers advice
upon losing a job. And Nietzsche has shrewd counsel for everything from
loneliness to illness. The Consolations of Philosophy is a book as accessibly
erudite as it is useful and entertaining.
