5.0 out of 5 stars Profound and funny? Yes, Keizer can do it.
Garret Keizer is that rare philosopher who couples profound insights into what we are and how we interact with examples from our lives that clarify and convince. He's also very funny and a meticulous writer and grammarian. If you buy this book, you will lend it out over and over until it disappears into someone else's library and you'll have to buy another one...

2.0 out of 5 stars condition not as expected
The condition report made no mention of the sloppy underlining in this book. The outside of the book is clean and in new condition, the inside not so much.

Read his book Help, if you haven't yet done so. He also writes regularly for Harper's Mgazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerfully beautiful in execution, style and scope, January 24, 2003
By A Customer
As beautifully crafted as it is personally moving, Keizer's book touches on themes that are universal in scope but personally affecting in execution. This important book touches on themes that quickly transcend, yet never betray, their parochial frame--a powerful work that moved this agnostic reader.
