Announcing: How to Be a Skeptic
Join my Substack Live with Massimo Pigliucci on Monday, June 15 at 12pm Eastern.
On 15th of June at 12pm eastern time, I’ll be chatting with Massimo Pigliucci about skepticism and his forthcoming book How to Be a (Happy) Skeptic: The Power of Doubt in a Meaningful Life–Lessons from Cicero’s Philosophy.
Everyone is welcome. You’ll be able to join the live stream on Substack using this link, and a recording will be sent out afterwards.
In How to Be a (Happy) Skeptic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci reveals the way to a meaningful, happy life through the power of curiosity and doubt with the ancient Roman public advocate, orator, statesman, and thinker Marcus Tullius Cicero as his guide. Cicero lived in turbulent times at the end of the Roman Republic. Though he mostly lived as a Stoic, Cicero also followed Plato’s Skeptical Academy, believing a spirit of inquiry and an open-minded attitude were the secrets to living well.
