Epicureanism is not just for gourmands - journalist Luke Slattery argues that it can help us rethink out materialist ways and face the challenges of man-made climate change.
Luke Slattery is the author of two books - Crisis in the Clever Country: Why Our Universities are Failing (with Geoffrey Maslen), and Dating Aphrodite: Modern Adventures in the Ancient World.
-Writing with a pleasing lightness of touch, Slattery argues that
Epicurus and his followers were greens centuries before the modern
environmentalist movement, and that their emphasis on community and
cultivation is more relevant now than ever.- --Sun-Herald
