Summary
"How can Freud help you grieve for the loss of your father? How can Derrida help you overcome the fear of making a bad decision? How can Heidegger help us reason with the joy, and frustrations, of living with someone? In Robert Rowland Smith's astonishingly frank and arresting memoir, he asks how philosophy, psychology and anthropology can bring us closer to answering some of the most central questions about our lives, such as what is it to be human? Subscribing to Socrates' idea that Àn unexamined life is not worth living', Smith examines his own life with an intense honesty."--
