Time magazine called Mortimer J. Adler a "philosopher for everyman." In this guide to considering the big questions, Adler addresses the topics all men and women ponder in the course of life, such as "What is love?", "How do we decide the right thing to do?", and, "What does it mean to be good?" Drawing on his extensive knowledge of Western literature, history, and philosophy, the author considers what is meant by democracy, law, emotion, language, truth, and other abstract concepts in light of more than two millennia of Western civilization and discourse. Adler's essays offer a remarkable and contemplative distillation of the Great Ideas of Western Thought.Binding Type: Paperback

Colossal Compendium Volume Six is Cool
Format: Paperback
Written by a 16 year old
My mom pre-ordered this for me on June 26th, because I was trying to get all of the colossal compendiums that are out so far. Eventually, it was delivered to me seven days later on the day it came out (July 3rd), and I was hyped. Now I have all of the first six colossal compendiums.
Overall, this is a really nice compilation comic book, like the first five colossal compendiums. I enjoy all the stories in this volume, along with the paper craft King Toot's Music Store.
I also love how this volume's cover continues the journey of Homer trying to get his donut from Santa's Little Helper as more characters show up. I can't wait for Colossal Compendium Volume Seven next year if it is announced.
Before you buy, here is the list of stories that are featured in this volume:
The Book of Jobs (from Simpsons Comics 223)
If You Could See What I Smell (from Simpsons Comics 231)
Game On! (from Simpsons Comics 230)
The Left Behinders! (from The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror 21)
The Radioactive Man Christmas Special! (from Simpsons Winter Wingding 9)
Splotchmen (from Simpsons Super Spectacular 13)
Debt Be Not Proud (from Simpsons Comics 213)
Scent of a Baby (from Maggie 1)
Have Bodybag, Will Travel (McBain 1)
Donut Detectives (from Simpsons Comics 230)
Monty's Morphin' Power Wranglers (from Simpsons Comics 212)
Li'l Homer in Fish Story (from Li'l Homer 1)
