About this product
Product Information
This book will change how you think about walking and how you walk while you are thinking. In an updated new edition, Frédéric Gros leads readers on an entertaining and insightful ramble in the company of great philosophers - Kant, Nietzsche, Thoreau, Kierkegaard - who understood that great ideas came to them while on foot.

Reviews
"A passionate affirmation of the simple life, and joy in simple things. And it's beautifully written: clear, simple, precise." -- Observer "Poignant life-stories ... are interspersed with the author's own meditations on walking ... In the way a landscape is gradually absorbed by the long-distance rambler they steadily build into an insistent exhortation: get up, get out and walk!" -- Independent "Life-affirming stuff." -- National Geographic Traveler "Impressive." -- Daily Telegraph "Philosopher Gros ponders walking, that most mundane mode of transportation or exercise, elevating it to its rightful place in inspiring creativity, evoking freedom, and quieting a troubled soul." -- Booklist "This elegant book inspires consideration of an oft-overlooked subject." - Publisher's Weekly "Frédéric Gros asks why so many of our most productive writers and philosophers - Rousseau, Kant, Rimbaud, Robert Louis Stevenson, Nietzsche, Jack Kerouac - have also been indefatigable walkers ... there are certain magical things that happen on the trail, and Gros is familiar with them. He thinks like a hiker."-- Financial Times "An admirable little book which will delight even the most sedentary."-- Le Monde "An unclassifiable book in which ideas are illuminated by the bright light of the morning."-- L'Express

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
