We all worry about what others think of us. We all long to succeed and fear failure. We all suffer --- to a greater or lesser degree, usually privately and with embarassment --- from status anxiety.
For the first time, Alain de Botton gives a name to this universal condition and sets out to investigate both its origins and possible solutions. He looks at history, philosophy, economics, art and politics --- and reveals the many ingenious ways that great minds have overcome their worries. The result is a book that is not only entertaining and thought-provoking --- but genuinely wise and helpful as well.
Alain de Botton was born in 1969. He is the author of Essays in Love (1993), The Romantic Movement (1994), Kiss and Tell (1995), How Proust Can Change Your Life (1997), The Consolations of Philosophy (2000), The Art of Travel (2002) and Status Anxiety (2004).

评分这本书好读、易读,读完后我的第一个感觉是:这本书应该是职场上焦虑的白领人群们要读而用之的“心灵鸡汤”啊。 当然,说“心灵鸡汤”可能降低了此书的品味,因为好歹读者能在此书中感受对历史对艺术和对永恒价值的尊重。虽然我认为德波顿通篇来回论述的对身份...
评分在《三联生活周刊》上看到的一篇书评引起了我对这本书的兴趣。不知是不是因为毕业论文写的内容和社会学中的“身份”概念有关,至今看到和“身份”这个词有关的书,总是会仔细看看介绍,了解一下是讲什么的。 起初,阿兰·德波顿这个名字对我来说是陌生的。“身份的焦虑”...
