内容简介

This work is about dreams, ups and downs, and motivation. Mainly, it's not only about becoming someone, but how important it is just to be on your way. And don't forget that everyone can surprise him or herself, and do something unique and special in their lives. It might not be as difficult as you think. With every step into the unknown an explorer pushes back the frontiers of human potential. "Philosophy for Polar Explorers" is an authentic adventure into the experience of action, freedom and will that are fundamental to human existence. Erling Kagge draws on his experience from his expeditions, the art world, the publishing industry, and family life. He uses references from popular culture, the history of philosophy, surfing, famous adventures and the world of contemporary art.
