Publisher Description: "Carolyn Sweers is a free-lance philosopher and teacher. She is committed to the Socratic insight that if people are asked the right questions, they can come up with the wisdom they need for the living of a good life. This book is a compilation of some thought provoking questions and some clues to their answers. The questions and clues were developed and used with great success in a number of older adult courses she taught at Osher Milwaukee. It is her hope that readers will, with the help of this book, continue their own truth searches both alone and in the company of others." |
Contributor Bio(s): Sweers, Carolyn J.: - Carolyn Sweers grew up on an Iowa farm in the 1950's. It was there that she had her first experiences of the profound truths she tries to describe in this book. These experiences, more than any others, shaped her life and led her to a career as a philosophy student and teacher. This book and others that she has had published recently, have a shared objective: to evoke insight in the reader. She knows from experience the importance of finding what Kierkegaard called "the truth for me." And, she shares the Socratic conviction that people have within them this truth. It simply needs to be evoked. |
