Publisher Description: Who am I? What is my purpose? How should I live my life? How do I acquire happiness and recognize it when it is within my grasp? Man has grappled with these fundamental questions since the beginnings of recorded history. SUCH IS LIFE opens a dialogue between generations of our greatest philosophers in search of the answers. Confucius, Aristotle, Samuel Johnson, Sigmund Freud, Mark Twain and a thousand other such personages join in the debate. Their topic of discussion is life itself: the ages of man; the passions that influence his fate; the effect of society upon the individual; the private, internal search for identity and one's sense of self. In the flow of their conversation they attempt to isolate and define the Human Condition. Their insight bridges the whole of our earthly tenure from birth to death and offers a conclusion as to how to make your life work for you. Here you will find the accumulated wisdom of the ages presented in an enjoyable and accessible manner. SUCH IS LIFE will broaden your understanding while guiding you towards a happier and more fulfilling life experience. SUCH IS LIFE is a resource and handmaiden for your journey through life. |
