Following the course of an imaginary seminar, with participants both living and historical, real and fictitious, the reader is led through a fascinating debate on wise and unwise behaviour. Wisdoms, as defined here, are nothing esoteric. They are actions and attitudes based on common sense, on insight, on the ability to think judiciously utilizing knowledge, experience and understanding. They can be communicated, learned, and applied by anyone, at any age.
This is a well-researched, timely and original book, spanning a broad spectrum of questions, problems and circumstances facing modern man and providing suggestions on how best to deal with them. It is also highly entertaining reading, where even complex subjects are treated with lucidity and with frequent injections of humour.
