Schall takes up the task of reminding us that, as human beings, we naturally take a special delight and pleasure in simply knowing. Because we have not only bodies but also minds, we are built to know what is.<\/p>\n<p>In this volume, Schall, author of On the Unseriousness of Human Affairs, among many other volumes of philosophical and political reflection, discusses the various ways of approaching the delight of thinking and the way that this delight begins in seeing and hearing and even in making and walking. We must be attentive to and cultivate the needs of the mind, argues Schall, for it is through our intellect that all that is not ourselves is finally returned to us, allowing us to live in the light of truth.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    ISI Books; 2nd edition (April 15, 2008)   <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    English   <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    225 pages   <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    193385961X   <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    978-1933859613   <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    2.31 pounds   <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    6 x 0.6 x 9 inches   <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> In The Life of the Mind, Georgetown University\u2019s James V.
