This quest for optimization has found a popular ally in Stoicism, a philosophy of self-mastery and determination. But in a restless world, this impossible hustle is making us unhappy. When all we want is more, we find that we never have quite enough. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThousands of years ago, Epicurus argued that we need philosophy to offer a better way forward. And so, in a world where anxiety, loneliness, and isolation are increasingly normalized, we need more than endurance. We need a mindset that helps us thrive in the world as it is. We need Epicureanism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Enough\u003c\/i\u003e, popular philosopher Jonny Thomson blends together ancient Greek philosophy and contemporary science to show how we can deal with the beautiful, messy realities of life. Through real-life examples and philosophical principles, Thomson shows how the Epicurean ideals of introspection, close friendship, and commitment can teach us to enjoy the many pleasures we're simply too anxious to see. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIntelligent, warm, and timely, \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Enough\u003c\/i\u003e is not a book about wanting less. It's a book about finally appreciating what enough looks like--and discovering it was there all along.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonny Thomson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250454255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250454256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Henry Holt \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.12w x 1.00d","brand":"Jonny Thomson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997572608255,"sku":"9781250454256","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-art-of-enough-jonny-thomson-9781250454256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
