The challenge of things : thinking through troubled times
Grayling, A. C.2015
Books, Manuscripts
A.C. Grayling's lucid and stimulating books, based on the idea that philosophy should engage with the world and make itself useful, are immensely popular. 'The Challenge of Things' joins earlier collections like 'The Reason of Things' and 'Thinking of Answers', but this time to collect Grayling's recent writings on the world in a time of war and conflict. In describing and exposing the dark side of things, he also explores ways out of the habits and prejudices of mind that would otherwise trap us forever in the deadly impasses of conflicts of all kinds.
