Ten thought-provoking 'life lessons' based on seventy five tasty tit-bits of philosophy, drawn from the writings of the Greats. How to Live offers not only tips on life's eternal questions, but a tasty entree into philosophy. 'What the papers say' - about Martin Cohen's books 101 Philosophy Problems: 'Cohen continually delights or infuriates us with his irreverent opinions.' -Times Higher Education (London) 'Without technical terms and incomprehensible superstructure, but with wit and irony, Cohen explains the basic concepts of philosophy and, in passing, the most famous thinkers of history.' -Der Spiegel 101 Ethical Dilemmas '...a chatty, jokey journey through philosophical dilemmas, ancient and modern... but the philosophy is the real thing.' -New Scientist
