9780966190861: Alternative Values: The Perennial Debate about Wealth, Power, Fame, Praise, Glory, and Physical Pleasure

Sinopsis

Is desire itself desirable? Should we let our desires run unchecked, especially the passionate desires for wealth, fame, praise, power and physical pleasure? Or should we try to eliminate them? Set up as a lively debate between the best thinkers of today and yesterday, Alternative Values offers strong arguments--some logical, some empirical, some emotional, some deeply and inexpressibly intuitive--on each side of this debate. An excellent guide for the young (and not so young) who must sort out these issues for themselves, and a wonderful resource for business leaders and public speakers.
