Summary:
The great question of the meaning of life breaks down into a number of different questions, some of which must be answered differently and uniquely. Baggini offers philosophy not as a direct answer to this age-old question, but a method of sorts that gives us the resources for answering these smaller questions.
Contents:
Looking for the blueprint
Living life forwards
More things in heaven and earth
Here to help
The greater good
As long as you're happy
Becoming a contender
Carpe diem
Lose your self

Of which reason knows nothing.
