Ever want to have a bagel with Hegel? Eggs with Bacon? Or spend a
day with Socrates, Mill, Herodotus, or Kant, able to pick their
brains about the most mundane moments of your life? Former Oxford
Philosophy Fellow Robert Rowland Smith thought he would, and so
with dry wit and marvelous invention, Smith whisks you through a
typical day, injecting a little philosophy into it at every turn.
Wake up with Descartes, go to work with Plato and Nietzsche, visit
the gym with Kant, have sex with Ovid (or Simone de Beauvoir).
As the day unfolds, Smith grounds complex, abstract ideas in
concrete experience, giving you an informal introduction to
applying philosophy to everyday life. Not only does "Breakfast with
Socrates "cover the basic arguments of philosophy, it brings an
irresistible, insouciant charm to its big questions, waking us up
to the richest possible range of ideas on how to live. Neither
breakfast, lunch, nor dinner will ever be the same again.
