{"product_id":"status-anxietybooks","title":"Status Anxiety","description":"This is a book about an almost universal anxiety that rarely gets mentioned directly: an anxiety about what others think of us, about whether we're judged a success or a failure, a winner or a loser. This is a book about status anxiety. Alain de Botton, bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eThe Consolations of Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Travel\u003c\/i\u003e, asks—with lucidity and charm—where worries about our status come from and what, if anything, we can do to surmount them. With the help of philosophers, artists, and writers, he examines the origins of status anxiety before revealing ingenious ways in which people have learned to overcome their worries in their search for happiness. \u003cp\u003eThe result is a book that isn't just highly entertaining and thought provoking, but also genuinely wise and helpful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Botton, Alain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":43777801781472,"sku":"","price":12.6,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0330\/3125\/8248\/products\/BNCImageAPI_82b0adb2-abc5-4423-8f42-5862ddf980b5.jpg?v=1672851084","url":"https:\/\/agricola-street-books.myshopify.com\/products\/status-anxietybooks","provider":"Agricola Street Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
