      abstract = {We all want to know how to live. But before the good life  was reduced to ten easy steps or a prescription from the  doctor, it was the philosophers who offered arresting  answers to the most fundamental questions about who we are  and what makes for a life worth living. Here, James Miller  returns to this vibrant tradition with short, lively  biographies of twelve famous philosophers. With a flair for  paradox and rich anecdote, this is a book that confirms the  continuing relevance of philosophy today--and explores the  most urgent questions about what it means to live a good  life.--From publisher description.},
