“Life Worth Living is an essential invitation to creating a full and integrity-driven life centered around what matters most to you.”
–Maria Shriver
“This instant New York Times best seller is based on Yale’s popular undergrad class on the age-old question of the meaning of life…. Students have called the class life-changing, and readers who experience this book’s wisdom and new perspectives should feel the same way.”
—New York Post
“A must-read for any age.”
—Booklist, starred review
“Life Worth Living is an essential roadmap for anyone who’s ever wondered about how to live the good life. It’s the accessible crash course we all need to explore the big questions that lead to a happier, more morally satisfying life.”
–Laurie Santos, Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon Professor of Psychology at Yale University and host of The Happiness Lab podcast
“Three great scholars tackling the most important of Questions! This book is worth rolling up your sleeves, saying your prayers, and diving into what could be quite possibly the most important work you ever do. Whether on your own or with a small group, make this book a priority.”
–The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church and author of Love is the Way and The Power of Love
“This valuable book is full of the wisdom of many minds and cultures on essential questions about selfhood, notably, how the self is to be understood, disciplined and enjoyed, and how it can discover an integrity that will be expressed in a good life. The questions are ancient, but the book is absolutely timely.”
– Marilynne Robinson, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Gilead and Housekeeping
“The authors provide meaningful reflection and jumping-off points to better discover the aspects of your life that make it good.”
