Trade Review'In this classic essay, Russell offers a brilliant statement of some of the central beliefs and arguments underpinning his philosophy as a whole. In his defnition, a good life “is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Neither love without knowledge, nor knowledge without love can produce a good life.”'— THE PRODUKTKULTURMAGAZIN
