Published quarterly, New Philosopher explores philosophical ideas from past and present thinkers on ways to live a happier, more fulfilling life. What grabbed us about this issue… This is the wisdom issue, unpicking what wisdom is and how it has been perceived over time. Think of it as a good entry point into deeper thinking rather than an expert read. There's a short read on practical wisdom that breaks Aristotle's ideas down into a succinct passage without feeling intimidating. We kept coming back to an infographic on the evolution of Western wisdom. If you're into more modern thinking, there are also ideas about mindfulness and how it can help with engaging with the world that you might enjoy. Who's New Philosopher for? Don't be put off by the title - New Philosopher is good for those new to philosophy as well as the more experienced. You can see the thinking that goes into each issue, with longer interviews sitting alongside shorter reads and visual infographics. The layout gives you room to breathe between each piece, so you can dip in and cherry-pick based on your interests. It's one to savour on a quiet afternoon, when you have the time to think a little more. Type: Mixed-length, considered read Pages: 130 Instagram: @newphilosopher
