‘Shadows in Plato’s Cave’ is a
fascinating compilation of helpful ‘pearls of wisdom’ to
guide us in everyday life.
For several years, the author has
studied the subject of personal development. In doing
so, he has made a note of many useful philosophical
quotes.
The quotes presented are from
authorities and writers who he has found to be
inspirational, illuminating and a general help in
everyday life.
As such, the ebook is very
wide-ranging, and contains quotes from individuals
throughout history.
These quotes are structured
under specific headings. Part 1 of the book deals with
such issues as mistakes, forgiveness and adversity. Part
2 examines issues related to meditation, wisdom,
determination, calm, work, humility, patience,
detachment, attitude to life, attitude to people and
God.
This book is a useful tool for people
interested in issues of self-help and personal
development.
Within it they will find wisdom,
guidance, advice, thought provoking observations and a
code for living.
