The Meaning of Life

Why is there something rather than nothing? Is this fleeting existence all that there is? What is the point of existing at all? In this philosophical reflection on our place in the universe and the implications this has for how we ought to live our lives, philosopher Robert Maxwell invites his readers to join him in a quest to uncover the whole point of human existence. Using humor, logic, and "plain English," the author hopes to make comprehensible deep questions most of us spend far too little time thinking about.
