Every Time I Find the Meaning of Life

Fifty years ago, Daniel Klein began studying philosophy at Harvard University, hoping to find an answer to that most burning of questions: what is the best way to live my life? He thought the great philosophers would be able to give him some ideas, or at least some clues. But, aside from the occasional hint, all he got were more questions, ones which philosophers thought needed answering first. They included 'what is the meaning of meaning?' and 'how can we know what is true?'..Now in his seventies and looking back on his life, Klein brings us a personal commentary on the great philosophical pronouncements he's collected over the years. Told with the same brilliantly dry sense of humour that made Travels with Epicurus so popular, Every Time I Find the Meaning of Life is an eminently readable series of thoughts on wise words...
