The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms

Description

Why are we so often unwilling to accept that life is unpredictable? In this book, the author distils his idiosyncratic wisdom to demolish our illusions, contrasting the classical values of courage, elegance and erudition against modern philistinism and phoniness. It features a collection of aphorisms to help you navigate the modern world.
