Böcker av John Morrison

"Shall I kill myself or have a cup of coffee?"These words, often misattributed to the French philosopher Albert Camus, encapsulate the choice many of us face in a world that can seem devoid of inherent meaning. Rather than succumbing to despair, we can simplify our lives by choosing to have a cup of coffee instead of the alternative. It's a choice to embrace the simple pleasures and connections that life has to offer."Choose Coffee: How to Live in an Increasingly Nihilistic World" delves deep into the themes of existentialism, nihilism, and the pursuit of meaning in a world that often feels devoid of it. Through a blend of philosophy and everyday experiences, Dr. Morrison takes readers on a journey of self-discovery and resilience, using coffee as a metaphor for finding purpose and connection amidst the chaos. This book is not just about coffee; it's a guide to navigating life's uncertainties with a fresh perspective, one cup at a time.
