Finally, I read Thomas Morris' Making Sense of It All after having it on my shelf for nearly a decade. It was an assigned book in my freshman philosophy class, but I don't think we ever got around to discussing it, spending most of our time on Socrates and Hume ("Has-Been Deities" would be a great name for a rock band). Anyway, I should have read it sooner. It's a short (under 200 pages) book, but very enlightening. It talks about Pascal's Pensées and why deep thought about the meaning of life is so important for everyone to do at some point in their life and why so few people actually do take such thought.

An instructive and entertaining book that addresses basic life questions. Relating numerous personal anecdotes, incorporating, intriguing material from the films of Woody Allen and the journals of Leo Tolstoy, and using the writings of the seventeenth-century genius Blaise Pascal as a central guide, Morris explores the nature of faith, reason, and the meaning of life. His lucid reflections provide fresh, fertile insights and perspectives for any thoughtful person journeying through life. No library descriptions found. |
