The Consolations of Philosophy - Alaine de Botton

We have always loved de Botton's soothing, philosophical voice, explaining to us ever so gently how to live our lives, which is exactly what this one does. He's so smart! And we wish we could be like him. *Also check out 'The School of Life' if you haven't, the 'company' helping people with their emotional intelligence that de Botton started in London. Very good copy.
