Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy takes us by surprise. It challenges us, awakens us and opens our minds.

Let Fabrice Midal teach you to trust your own thoughts, as he guides us through the inspirational ideas of forty writers, artists, thinkers and seers from Baudelaire to Wittgenstein, Emily Dickinson to Toni Morrison, Pablo Picasso to James Baldwin. Each short essay offers three minutes of calm in our turbulent world, restoring our humanity and perspective.
