Dissatisfied, we seek change for the sake of changeeven if it means undermining the foundations of our common life. In Why We Are Restless, Benjamin and Jenna Storey offer a profound and beautiful reflection on the roots of this malaise and examine how we might begin to cure ourselves.Drawing on the insights of Montaigne, Pascal, Rousseau, and Tocqueville, Why We Are Restless explores the modern vision of happiness that leads us on, and the disquiet that follows it like a lengthening shadow. In the sixteenth century, Montaigne articulated an original vision of human life that inspired people to see themselves as individuals dedicated to seeking contentment in the here and now, but Pascal argued that we cannot find happiness through pleasant self-seeking, only anguished God-seeking. Rousseau later tried and failed to rescue Montaignes worldliness from Pascals attack. Steeped in these debates, Tocqueville visited the United States in 1831 and, observing a people restless in the midst of their well-being, discovered what happens when an entire nation seeks worldly contentmentand finds mostly discontent.Arguing that the philosophy we have inherited, despite pretending to let us live as we please, produces remarkably homogenous and unhappy lives, Why We Are Restless makes the case that finding true contentment requires rethinking our most basic assumptions about happiness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAutor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJenna Silber Storey\u003cspan style=\"color: #b3b3b3;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaracterísticas técnicas:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eTamaño cerrado 140 x 216 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e264 páginas interiores\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eTapa rústica\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eEncuadernación lomo cuadrado\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eEn Webook cuidamos el medio ambiente, imprimimos lo justo y este libro lo haremos especialmente para ti \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bibliomanager","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46775518724233,"sku":"001-0000291197","price":30400.0,"currency_code":"CLP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5703\/6937\/files\/1465271_IMAGEN_TAPA_G_001_7e687d2c-4fa4-45b3-ab9a-802692088ab5.jpg?v=1779274578","url":"https:\/\/webook.cl\/products\/why-we-are-restless","provider":"WeBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
