Adam Phillips
Are we too obsessed with excess? What can childhood teach us about bad behaviour? And should we be happy, or is there something better we might be? This title explores a variety of urgent concerns related to how we attempt to manage our conflicting desires, needs and motives. It provides arguments, wordplay and more.
