Review:
De Botton analyses modern society with great charm, learning and humour. His remedies come as a welcome relief when most books offering solutions to the stresses of life recommend the lotus position (Daily Mail)
Measured, amused, compassionate . . . de Botton is a surefooted discoverer of the pungent but less well-known quote (Daily Telegraph)
A purveyor of serious but playful manuals for living (GQ)
Turned me into a fan, for its range, insight, wit and sheer usefulness (Daily Express)
