Making sense of, and finding calm in, unsteady times

The modern world has brought us a range of extraordinary benefits and joys, including technology, medicine and transport. But it can also feel as though modern times have plunged us ever deeper into greed, despair and agitation. Seldom has the world felt more privileged and resource-rich yet also worried, blinkered, furious, panicked and self-absorbed.

Product description

How to Survive the Modern World is the ultimate guide to navigating our unusual times. It identifies a range of themes that present acute challenges to our mental wellbeing. The book tackles our relationship to the news media, our ideas of love and sex, our assumptions about money and our careers, our attitudes to animals and the natural world, our admiration for science and technology, our belief in individualism and secularism – and our suspicion of quiet and solitude. In all cases, the book helps us to understand how we got to where we are, digging deeply and fascinatingly into the history of ideas, while pointing us towards a saner individual and collective future. 

The emphasis isn’t just on understanding modern times but also on knowing how we can best relate to the difficulties these present. The book helps us to form a calmer, more authentic, more resilient and sometimes more light-hearted relationship to the follies and obsessions of our age. If modern times are (in part) something of a disease, this is both the diagnostic and the soothing, hope-filled cure.

Amazing toy for large dog breeds!
Size: 9.5 inch (Pack of 1), Size: 9.5 inch (Pack of 1)
My puppy Rottweiler loves this toy! Withstands her heavy chewing and really seems to soothe her! It’s very loud against the floor. She struggled a bit at first with picking it up but now it’s no problem. Highly recommend for big dogs

My puppy's favorite stick, high quality
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
Perfect quality chew toy for my dachshund puppy. She will spend several minutes everyday chewing on this. It is the perfect size for her small mouth and it doesn't show signs of wear like most sticks do.

Durable
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1), Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
Great buy would highly suggest for dogs that love to chew. I bout a large one for our 5 year old Husky and a medium one for our 11 week old puppy. Both are very intrigued by them and the puppy loves playing fetch with it. The only complaint I have is the size difference between the large and the small. I know measurements were given but the medium looks more like a very small stick. If you have a larger go with the Large size. Medium would really only work for smaller size dogs and pups

Hours of entertainment
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
I lived this branch bone for my pups. They like to carry it around and chew on it for hours. Not only does it look cute when they walk around with the branch in their mouth but it keeps them entertained and no mess. Not heavy but I wouldn't suggest throwing it, it would still hurt a bit if it hits one of your shins 😅. Long lasting too
