Philosopher Jacob Needleman has been teaching and writing about the riches of the inner life for four decades, giving a sophisticated but accessible perspective on the “big questions” of existence. A popular professor of philosophy at San Francisco State University who has been featured on Bill Moyers’ “World of Ideas” series, Needleman’s most recent works include What is God? and An Unknown World. Only one journalist has consistently followed Dr. Needleman's career over many years: Fearless Books founder D. Patrick Miller. Since 1989 he has conducted six feature interviews with Dr. Needleman on these subjects: Making Sense of Mysticism; Searching for the American Soul; The Secrets of Time and Love; The Meanings of Money; Meeting God Without Religion; and The Need for Philosophy. In this remarkable book of searching yet down-to-earth dialogues, readers will discover the keys to their own practice of philosophy, "the love of wisdom."

Zustand: Paperback in new condition. Jacob Needleman in conversation with D. Patrick Miller; 127 pages. How much of the deprivation felt by modern Westerners can be summed up by the complaints "If only I had more time" and "If only I felt more love"? (Throw in "more money" and you've just about got all our habitual wants summed up.) If philosopher Jacob Needleman is right, we will not find more love in online dating services nor any extra time in a new iPhone app. Instead, we must turn these searches in on themselves to ask why we seek so incessantly for more of such immeasurables. By confronting our habitual desires and complaints, he suggests, we may pry open the door to the realm of the inner life where both time and love reveal themselves not as problems to be solved but questions to be lived with.
