Title: Audience?
Review: If you recognize that the title of this book is taken from Boethius then the book is not for you. I can't remember where I heard about this book (NPR I think). I got on Amazon and ordered it without thinking twice. I was mislead.This is not a book for people with any significant background in philosophy. It is clearly a self help book first and foremost. It belongs next to Chicken Soup for ______, not the original Consolations of Philosophy.If you are looking for self help wrapped in a pop introduction to an interesting group of philosophers this is the book for you. If you are looking for a philosophy book then I've got to agree with the reviewer who commented "no clothes on this emperor."
Is the review positive or negative?
