Compelling answers to your biggest questions about life.The Western world faces unprecedented levels of depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Despite advancements in wealth, knowledge, and longevity of life, many feel their lives lack significance, leading to a deep longing for fulfillment and happiness. In The Problem of Life, author Mark Clark recounts a pivotal moment when he mistakenly informed a woman of her husband's death. This profound mistake taught him invaluable lessons about existence and purpose. He argues that our relentless pursuit of money, family, and friendships-while important-often distract us from what truly matters, leaving us disenchanted.What if we could address this inner ache What if we could discover our true place in the worldIn this final book of a trilogy which began with The Problem of God, Clark presents 11 practical principles to help us flourish.

*Why scientists and tennis players agree that the cultural conversation about gender is all backward.,

*Why your view on Sea World may predict your level of anxiety.,
