In his new guide, bestselling author Wilhelm Schmid shows the way to experience success and fulfillment in love. Amusing and easy to read, yet at times very personal, he shares insights into love, faces big questions about power, sex and money and does not duck out of the everyday drama that makes living together that much harder.
The reader learns how a flirtation can turn into a lifelong affair, how ups and downs in a relationship can be overcome, how feelings can be combined with shrewdness, romance and reality and how one can live with this paradox.
Wilhelm Schmid was born in 1953 and lives in Berlin. For many years, he taught philosophy at the University of Erfurt, was a visiting porfessor in Riga, Latvia, and Tbilisi, Georgia, and worked as a »philosophical counsellor« at a hospital near Zurich, Switzerland. He is a popular guest speaker and has been giving lectures in China and South Korea since 2010. He was awarded the Meckatzer Prize for Philosophy in 2012 and the Egnér Prize in 2013. His works have been translated into 25 languages, and his bestselling book Gelassenheit has sold over 600,000 copies.
