The School of Life

The School of Life

The School of Life is the brainchild of UK based modern-day philosopher and academic, Alain de Botton.  The school is basically an informal ‘university’ open to the public, that teaches its students how to explore and discuss the philosophies of ‘real, everyday life’.  Simply put, The School of Life offers a variety of programmes concerned with how to live wisely and well, addressing issues such as why work is often unfulfilling, why relationships can be so challenging, and what we can do to try to change the world for the better.  - Via The Design Files
