| Summary: | "Six Myths about the Good Life focuses on the values that are worth aiming for in our lives, a topic central to what has been called Philosophy of Life. We all have ideas about the good life. We think that pleasure makes life better. We want to be happy. We think that achievements make a difference.

Six Myths about the Good Life explores what they miss and, in the process, gives a sense of what a good life can be."--BOOK JACKET. |
