Hardback. Zustand: Fair. An utterly original exploration of the timeless human virtues and how they apply to the way we live now, from a bold and dynamic French writer. In this graceful, incisive book, writer-philosopher Andre Comte-Sponville reexamines the classic human virtues to help us under-stand "what we should do, who we should be, and how we should live."
