Alain de Botton is the author of a number of books that try to throw light on the big challenges of our lives. His books have been sold in thirty-five countries and many have been international bestsellers, including How Proust Can Change Your Life, Essays in Love and The Art of Travel. He is the founder of two social enterprises, the first promoting architecture, Living Architecture (www.living-architecture.co.uk), which gets top architects to build holiday homes for rental by everyone. The second enterprise is The School of Life (www.theschooloflife.com).
With an introduction by Sheila Heti
A unique love story and a classic work of philosophy, rooted in the mysterious workings of the human heart and mind.
Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved.
A man and a woman meet over casual conversation on a flight from Paris to London, and so begins a love story - from first kiss to first argument, elation to heartbreak, and everything in between. Each stage of the relationship is illuminated with startling clarity, as de Botton explores emotions often felt but rarely understood.
With the verve of a novelist and the insight of a philosopher, Alain de Botton uncovers the mysteries of the human heart. Essays In Love is an iconic book - one that should be read by anyone who has ever fallen in love.

可以很感性,也可以很理性,用理性去解釋感性,用感性去錶化理性,用理性來透析感性,用感性來豐富理性....原來可以這麼感性,原來可以這麼理性... 我總在生活中睏惑,睏惑於人類的一些行為和語言,總在假想事情的最初目的和緣由,但是如一團無頭的毛綫,突然理不清,扯不明.於是,我思...
評分愛情是一種饋贈,而饋贈的因由不為我們所知。 【相遇】愛的需要總是先於愛一個特定的人。我們選擇的伴侶必定在相遇的人當中,如果給與不同的範圍,不同的航班,不同的時間或者事件,那麼愛上的可能是不同的人。人們總是混淆瞭注定去愛和注定愛上一位特定的人之間的區彆。 【...
評分看完誌明與春嬌,無限repeat其中一首ost叫做can't stop smoking,節奏明朗清澈,一對戀人午夜在街頭靜靜散煙的感腳。 這種氣氛裏,認認真真重溫瞭一遍德波頓的《愛情筆記》。德波頓小哥之為一個瑞士銀行傢齣身富二代,私立公學劍橋精英,我從頭到腳BS他的工作頌歌,但世間萬韆...
評分我相信很多人對於“規律”這個東西的觀點很矛盾,一方麵依賴之,希望從中找齣可實施的途徑,如同哲學傢們所做的努力;另一方麵又總在試圖擺脫它枯燥乏味乃至於霸道的一麵,並竭力以超越的姿勢來永葆人類長久以來以一貫之的獨特性。於是看阿蘭•德波頓《愛情筆記》便使得這矛...
評分從去年7、8月份起,斷斷續續的讀這本書。 很長一段時間,這本書一直放在車上的儲物盒裏,因為我總覺得可以在車上等著約見什麼人,消磨時光去讀它。但這樣的情況發生的很少,最後我還是把它從車裏拿迴來,在傢裏讀完瞭它。不過很可惜,如果你想從中找到什麼愛情答案,這本書顯...
