The Pleasures of Philosophy is an investigative study of human lives and their destinies. Philosophy was once a special language and the occupation of a select group of people, considered for a time among the secret teachings withheld from the uninitiated... Today, it is intended to descend from its lofty heights and live among the common people on their own ground, moving from an aristocracy of thought to a democracy of easy and free inquiry... Durant undertook this burden and sought to establish a coherent philosophy for life... His presentation is interesting and captivating, signaling a vast knowledge and a complete grasp of philosophy, history, science, and literature.
