Descripción Softcover. Condición: new. From Library Journal In this challenging and entertaining anthology, which collects his essays from newspapers and popular magazines, the author demonstrates his devotion to making philosophy accessible. Ideas give life meaning, he declares; they are as natural and urgently needed as food or sex. Spanning a variety of such current topics as progress, love, and business ethics, his essays evince a winning combination of hard-hitting facts and subtle wit. He makes complex or abstract issues truly approachable for lay readers by illustrating them with everyday examples. Solomon has written over ten books, including Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit (Oxford Univ. Pr., 1987) and Love: Emo tion, Myth, and Metaphor (Prometheus Bks., 1990). His new work is a worthwhile acquisition for both public and academic libraries.- Nancy Shires, East Carolina Univ., Greenville, Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.
