It’s my 32nd birthday & I want for nothing; other than for people to buy my books! 😉 There’s Philosophers’ Dogs from the awesome Unbound (@unbounders)
And Taking Liberties from the irresistibly brilliant Breakthrough Books Collective
This Christmas - support #bookshops! We put out a list of great indie #bookstores on Nothing in the Rulebook a little while ago and it still holds up.
Do pick up some books and support our great bookshops!

Always love seeing my book, “Philosophers’ Dogs” out in the wild, especially in the run up to Christmas!
Here it is on the shelves of Waterstones. Dare I suggest it’s a perfect Christmas gift or stocking filler for someone you know?

Dogs will love it!”
My book, Philosophers Dogs, comes fully puppy recommended. And, with Christmas approaching, it makes for an excellent stocking filler for the humans in your life, too.
If you can help a writer out and pick ip a copy (available from all good bookstores), that would be very, very brilliant.
What does it mean to be a good dog? Are tennis balls always real? Is a bark ever truly worse than a bite? All these questions and more are answered in Philosophers' Dogs, the groundbreaking treat-ise that has been dog years in the making. The book reveals a long-kept secret: that every human philosopher has stolen their best ideas from their canine companions, shamelessly disguising the dogs' original thoughts as their own. Featuring beautiful illustrations alongside meticulously researched historical fact,* Philosophers' Dogs follows the trials, tribulations and tail-wagging of the pooches owned by famous philosophers and essayists. It is a vital addition to the bookshelves of philosophy students and dog lovers alike, packed with insights hitherto (wrongly) attributed to everyone from Confucius to Simone de Beauvoir via Socrates, Karl Marx and Mary Wollstonecraft. *Not necessarily historical or factual.

How does this sit on the old hierarchy of needs?
