Description:

Want to get more out of life?

Not to live a life of quiet desperation but one of deep satisfaction? How can we do this? By asking and answering the basic questions of life. What is important in my life? How do I construct a full, examined life?

This Study Guide, based on the book Gone Shopping! An Odyssey of Discovery, helps us answer these and many other important questions. How? By using philosophy, that love of wisdom. By reflecting on these questions we are led to a greater understanding of human nature, an understanding that enables us to focus on what matters most, to lead richer, more effective lives.
