How to be an epicurean : the ancient art of living well / Catherine Wilson.
"Despite the innumerable ways in which modern conveniences and scientific progress have changed our quality of life, many of our problems--concerning love, money, family, and politics--are the same as those faced by the Greeks. The response to those problems isn't unreflective hedonism, but the thoughtful pursuit of pleasure and purpose. Epicureanism shows us how to do it by promoting reason, respect for the natural world, and reverence for our fellow humans." -- inside front jacket flap.
