AutoBioPhilosophy by Robert Rowland Smith

AutoBioPhilosophy is an astonishingly frank and original autobiography that explores the fundamental question of what it means to be human.

Praise for Driving with Plato:

‘This is a fascinating and deeply impressive book’ Daily Mail

‘Smith has the suave wit of the professional intellectual’ Financial Times

‘I'll never drive the same way againOr have a midlife crisis the same way again, for that matter. This book is elegant proof that philosophy doesn't have to be fusty and musty’ A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically

‘A friendly guide to the meaning of life's milestones’ Guardian

‘I am often asked to recommend a good introduction to philosophy – now I've discovered one … Smith's work is witty, inventive and intelligent’ THES

‘Roland Smith is a gifted communicator and each chapter is perfectly balanced, and several times my mind was asking 'yes, but what about…?' only to have Roland Smith anticipate this and provide answers in the very next paragraph’ Bookbag

Praise for Breakfast with Socrates:

‘Philosophy made accessible … manages to be funny without underestimating the reader’ Financial Times

‘This charming book wears its erudition with ease’ Publishers Weekly

‘Smith has written a remarkable book, which goes through the seemingly mundane events of a day – waking up, having a bath, commuting, reading a book, and so on – and explores them with a philosophical eye to see what insights might be gleaned … joyously wise’ Church Times

‘A very thoughtful and continuously entertaining picture of human behaviour … a filling mental meal that should leave you delightfully satisfied’ Wired

Robert Rowland Smith is the author of six books, including Breakfast with Socrates and The Reality Test. He has been a columnist for both the Sunday Times Magazine and the Evening Standard and is a regular contributor to BBC radio.
