"This is a short essay presenting a philosophical model on the meaning and purpose of life. It addresses the very basic but critical question: ""Why do people do what they do and feel what they feel?"" In other words, is it possible to identify a fundamental motivating factor that commands and explains all our deeds, impressions and desires? And if so, how can such an ultimate reference of meaning help us to lead a better life?
Although it recognizes its due to our philosophical tradition, this book is meant to be of easy access, written so that most readers can enjoy it."
