This book had its inception when William Nichols of This Week magazine, wrote to outstanding men and women in a variety of fields asking advice for his readers: 'These are time', he said, 'when millions of people are disturbed and unhappy. We have somehow lost our sense of the meaning and purpose and beauty of life. Possibly you have faced the same problem. Perhaps you have found some Words to Live By and treasure them beacuse they say something that you regard as vital'. Their answeers became a weekly feature eagerly awaited by the magazine's ten million readers. From these contributions Mr. Nichols selected the ones which make up this book. Each of the ninety-four contributors quotes a few words from some great source - The Bible, philosophers, authors and statesmen - and then adds his own interpretation of the quotation and its influence on his life and on yours. 204 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
