Maggiori informazioni sul libro

We live in a world in which we are invited to change - to become our best selves, through politics, or fitness, or diet, or therapy. We change all the time - growing older and older - and how we think about change changes over time too. We want to think of our lives as progress myths, as narratives of positive personal growth, at the same time as we inevitably age and suffer setbacks. So there are the stories we tell about change, and there are the changes we actually make, and they don't always go, or come, together. This sparkling book is about that fact
