"Philos sophia" is ancient Greek for the love of wisdom, and is the precursor of modern philosophy and psychology. As a "lover of wisdom," author Jason Merchey brings a refreshing array of insightful and interesting quotations (and personal reflections) to this deep and wide investigation into the nature of wisdom.
No one can thoroughly and completely manifest wisdom, but clearly a person who has a better understanding of and appreciation for the fascinating phenomenon will perceive their world as less complex, more fulfilling, and easier to navigate. Furthermore, in momentous political and social times such as we are living, there is no better tool for individuals, communities, and society to make progress than wisdom.
Blending philosophy and neuroscience, psychology and personal growth, this substantial read brings great thinking to life. The interesting research findings, unique personal perspectives, and compelling quotes in this book have the potential to assist an earnest reader in making wisdom their greatest strength. Anyone aiming to build a life of value -- one of purpose and happiness -- should consider wisdom to be their blueprint for success.
