Philosophers on How to Live

Talking about Morality

Jack Symes | Jack Symes

Philosophy / Ethics & Moral Philosophy

Featuring remastered interviews and original essays from the world's leading thinkers, Philosophers on How to Live is a short, accessible guide to the philosophy of living.

How can we live a good life? Each of the 12 conversations tackle the question. Steven Pinker and Rutger Bregman discuss human nature; Patricia Church uncovers the origins of our moral intuitions; Peter Singer introduces his theory of utiliarianism; Martha Nussbaum asks if pride and anger are virtues or vices and Christian Miller uses contemporary psychology and moral philosophy to understand our capacity for goodness.

Their search for answers takes us to the heart of the human condition, illuminating the countless ways we can achieve a happy life. For anyone interested in grappling with the fundamentals of morality and mastering the art of living, here is the place to start.

Jack Symes is the producer of The Panpsycast Philosophy Podcast and the editor of the Bloomsbury series Talking about Philosophy. He is currently a teacher and researcher at the University of Liverpool, UK, and previously a teacher of religion and philosophy at King Edward VI High School for Girls.
