Produktbeschreibung
With the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. Now, in El camino del carácter, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives.
