Philosophy for Life by M A Lavery
Explores a series of contemporary political and cultural issues from a philosophical perspective, arguing that philosophy is not a body of doctrine, but a practice, a vantage point from which life should be analysed and, more importantly, acted upon.
"Although the language of philosophy can sometimes be arcane, Rupert uses examples from everyday life to show how his subject is part of today's world" Reviewed by Molly Scott-Cato in Greenworld, Spring 2008
