The Book of Questions



THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS

DARE TO ASK
Ask your friends. Ask your parents. Most of all, ask yourself. Questioning attitudes and morals, putting deeply held beliefs to the test, this provocative bestseller is a deceptively simple tool for self-discovery. Covering love, money, sex, ethics, technology, and more, it may be the only publication that challenges -and possibly changes- the way we view and live in the world, without offering a single opinion of its own.

"The best questions are the ones you can't Google. Here is a whole book of them."
-AUSTIN KLEON, author of Steal Like an Artist
