具体描述

In The Second Mountain, David Brooks explores the four commitments that define a life of meaning and purpose: to a spouse and family, to a vocation, to a philosophy or faith, and to a community. Our personal fulfillment depends on how well we choose and execute these commitments. In The Second Mountain, Brooks looks at a range of people who have lived joyous, committed lives, and who have embraced the necessity of dependence. He gathers their wisdom on how to choose a partner, how to pick a vocation, how to live out a philosophy, and how we can begin to integrate our commitments into one overriding purpose.

In short, this book is meant to help us all lead more meaningful lives. But it’s also a provocative social commentary. We live in a society, Brooks argues, that celebrates freedom, that tells us to be true to ourselves, at the expense of surrendering to a cause, rooting ourselves in a neighborhood, binding ourselves to others by social solidarity and love. We have taken individualism to the extreme—and in the process we have torn the social fabric in a thousand different ways. The path to repair is through making deeper commitments. In The Second Mountain, Brooks shows what can happen when we put commitment-making at the center of our lives.

Blinkist扫过。无意中按错开始听的书,完全不是我的菜,也是太鸡汤了。批判个人主义,不追究成因,不考虑其意义,一味地批判其削弱了社会关系,那被社会关系所绑架的负面作用怎么就只字不提呢?个人主义带来的社会问题一定就比群体主义少吗?对于物质的追求和精神迷失,都简单归结于个人主义的错,如果这么错,那么多宪法和政治制度在保障什么?最后还是归结到老生常谈的A life of service to others,从婚姻到职业到宗教到社区服务。特别说教。
