一切都完了

这不像一本教你'变得更好'的成长手册，而更像一场冷静的哲学诊断。作者的核心主张相当反直觉：驱动人行动的从来不是理性，而是情感；没有情感，好坏便失去区别，世界也就失去意义。由此出发，它追问一个更尖锐的问题——我们拼命'在乎'些什么，才决定了我们是谁？读者普遍反馈，这本书'正儿八经在聊哲学'：它借尼采、康德等先哲，把'自由''意义''痛苦'这些大词讲得深入浅出，前半部对社会现象的分析尤其精彩。但它也有争议：后半部被指'有点虚'，节奏不易跟上。它适合那些不满足于鸡汤、愿意跟着作者做思想体操、追问'如何构建自己生命存在的意义'的人。放弃希望，成为希望——这或许是全书最耐人寻味的悖论。

Mark Manson is the New York Times bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck (more than ten million copies sold worldwide) and a star blogger. Manson sold more than 250,000 copies of his self-published book, Models: Attract Women Through Honesty. Before long, his off-the-cuff voice was resonating with a much broader audience via his brilliantly counterintuitive essays on happiness. With titles like “The Most Important Question of Your Life,” “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck,” and “No, You Can’t Have It All,” his work was reposted by Elizabeth Gilbert, Chris Hemsworth, Will Smith, and Chelsea Handler. His site—markmanson.net—is read by two million people each month. Manson lives in New York City.
