Great Virtues by Andre Compte-Sponville

Every now and then I like to go to basics of life, and sometimes one find a book that suites that purpose. This one I like. This contemporary French writer, connects the Greek and Roman, the ones of the middle ages and more recent philosophers. Moderation is a chapter which connects ERE philosophy with the other virtues. But all 18 are worth to read I think. This writer is of the practical kind, one who learns to do.
