The Meaning of Life Synopsis

To wonder too openly or intensely about the meaning of life can seem a peculiar, ill-fated and faintly ridiculous pastime. It can seem like a topic on which ordinary mortals cannot make much progress. In truth, it is for all of us to wonder about, define and work towards a more meaningful existence.

This book presents a range of areas in which we might seek the meaning of life, including love, family, friendship, work, self-knowledge and nature. We learn why certain things feel meaningful while others don't, and consider how we might introduce more meaning into our activities.

Topics covered in this book:

  • Love
  • Vague self-understanding
  • Family
  • Provincialism
  • Work Selflessness
  • Friendship
  • Immortality
  • Culture
  • The art of storytelling
  • Politics
  • Nature
  • Philosophy
