{"product_id":"on-giving-up","title":"On Giving Up","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we must give up to feel more alive. To give up or not to give up?The question can feel inescapable but the answer is never simple. Giving up our supposed vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is quite another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to admire and aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not actively undesirable. There are always, it turns out, both good and bad sacrifices, but it is not always clear beforehand which is which. We give something up because we believe we can no longer go on as we are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003ePublished: UK, 2024\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Penguin Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003ePages: 160\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN 13: 9780241656594\u003cbr\u003eISBN 10: 0241656591\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam Phillips","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45301134197002,"sku":"","price":23.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/files\/9780241656594.jpg?v=1709990052","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/on-giving-up","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
