PETITE EXPLORATION PHILOSOPHIQUE DU BONHEUR. "Le bonheur est-il un objectif valable ?", "Pourquoi les êtres humains sont-ils en quête de sens ?" et "La vie est-elle un vide existentiel ?" Dans cet essai philosophique, Frank Martela aborde avec profondeur et humour les plus grandes préoccupations et dilemmes philosophiques de la vie. En replaçant les grands textes philosophiques dans un contexte moderne, il nous offre une vision concise de notre place dans le monde et de la façon dont nous pouvons mettre ce questionnement au cœur de notre existence.

Pourquoi certaines rencontres nous donnent-elles l'impression de renaître ? Comment se rendre disponibles à celles qui vont intensifier nos vies, nous révéler à nous-mêmes ?

La rencontre - amoureuse, amicale, professionnelle - n'est pas un "plus" dans nos vies.
