Alain de Botton's (henceforth, 'Alain') opus minimus has achieved three remarkable things. It has made philosophy popular, it has made philosophy fashionable, and, most remarkable of all, it is not completely awful. The book, as everyone by now must know (after the TV series, which evidently precedes and creates the book), is a series of vignettes - 'episodes' - in which Alain ponders how a select few, fairly ancient, philosophers, might address a few key personal problems. Being unpopular, being poor, being unloved, and so on. Not on the face of it, a particularly clever idea. But then, no on The Consolations of Philosophy - Alain de Botton od authora Alain de Botton a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus. cz.
