Description: |
Life is hard, from personal trauma to the injustice and absurdity of the world, sometimes simply going on can feel too much.
In this profound and personal book, Professor of Philosophy, Kieran Setiya, shows how philosophy can help us find our way. He shares his own experience with chronic pain and the consolation that comes from making sense of it. He asks what we can learn from loneliness and loss about the value of human life. And he explores how we can fail with grace, confront injustice, and search for meaning in the face of despair.
Drawing on ancient and modern philosophy, Life is Hard is a work of solace and compassion. It draws us towards justice, for ourselves and others, by acknowledging what it means to be alive. |
