Story0
In a culture that worships ceaseless striving, "settling" seems like giving up. But is it? On Settling defends the positive value of settling, explaining why this disdained practice is not only more realistic but more useful than an excessive ideal of striving. In fact, the book makes the case that we'd all be lost without settling - and that even to strive, one must first settle.

Story0
The French thinker and political theorist Georges Sorel (1847-1922), fired up by his interest in Marxism and his anger at the injustice of the Dreyfus case, faced this challenge and in the seven chapters of Reflections on Violence he explored the question. It proved sufficiently stimulating over succeeding decades to be espoused by both Marxists and Fascists alike: class struggle, revolution and above all radical change were central to Sorel’s thought.

We are stuck in 'Infinite Browsing Mode' - swiping through endless dating profiles without committing to a single partner, jumping from place to place searching for the next big thing, refusing to make any decision that might close us off from an even better choice we imagine is around the corner. This culture of restlessness and indecision, Davis argues, is causing tension in the lives of young people today. In Dedicated, Davis examines this quagmire, as well as the counterculture of committers who have made it to the other side.

We tend to think about bad feelings—feelings like anger, envy, spite, and contempt—as the weeds in life's garden. But this isn't quite right, according to philosopher Krista K. Thomason. Bad feelings are the worms, not the weeds. They're just below the surface, and we like to pretend they aren't there, but they serve an important purpose. Thomason draws on insights from the history of philosophy to show what we've gotten wrong about bad feelings and to show listeners how we can live better with them.
