Publisher's Synopsis

A 15th anniversary collection of The School of Life's most popular and essential essays on self-knowledge, relationships, work and culture.
 
The School of Life is an organisation with a focused mission at its heart: to help foster calm, self-understanding and greater emotional maturity. In celebration of The School of Life's 15th anniversary, we have gathered together ten of our landmark essays on key topics in a collectible edition. Among these, we find: Self-Knowledge, On Confidence, What is Psychotherapy?, How to Find Love, The Sorrows of Love, Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person, Why We Hate Cheap Things, How to Reform Capitalism, The Sorrows of Work and What is Culture For?
 
In elegant and always clear prose, the essays take us on a tour around the central topics of emotional life, leaving us enlightened, calmer and readier to greet our inevitable challenges.  With a new introduction from The School of Life,  this book amounts to nothing less than a concise compendium of some of the wisest things we'll ever need to know.
