Detalles del libro
"May is something of a legend, known for his lively, conversational style of discourse, and this book-on no less than the meaning of life-showcases all of his best features. It is engaging and clear, with vivid examples from literature and May's own life. It addresses a topic of very broad interest, yet it does so in a philosophically sophisticated way. Despite Pierre Hadot's claim that all ancient philosophy was about the meaning of life, there is surprisingly little engagement of the question by contemporary philosophers. May's book fills this void marvelously." (Charles Guignon, author of On Being Authentic)
