A. C. Grayling's lucid and stimulating books, based on the idea
that philosophy should engage with the world and make itself
useful, are immensely popular. The Challenge of Things joins
earlier collections like The Reason of Things and Thinking of
Answers, but this time to collect Grayling's recent writings on the
world in a time of war and conflict. In describing and exposing the
dark side of things, he also explores ways out of the habits and
prejudices of mind that would otherwise trap us forever in the
deadly impasses of conflicts of all kinds. Whether he is writing
about the First World War and its legacy, free speech, the
advantages of an atheist prime minister or the role of science in
the arts, his essays are always enlightening, enlivening and
hopeful.
