True friendship is a skill, not a divine accident

Few things promise as much potential happiness as friendship, yet the challenge of finding and maintaining meaningful connections remains one of life's great struggles. Drawing on psychology, philosophy and cultural history, The Secrets of Successful Friendships offers a thoughtful exploration of why friendship is both more complex and more rewarding than we typically imagine. It examines why we get lonely, what holds us back from deeper connections, and how we might develop the emotional intelligence needed for lasting bonds.

With characteristic wisdom and warmth, the book explores different varieties of friendship, from casual acquaintances to profound, lifelong connections, while offering practical insights into overcoming common obstacles like shyness, envy and fear of vulnerability. By explaining friendship’s true purpose, the book gives us a chance to build new relationships of genuine depth and meaning.

The School of Life is an organisation built to help us find calm, self-understanding, resilience, and connection especially during troubled times. We place emphasis on the need to understand ourselves better, so that we can secure serenity and make optimally reliable decisions, particularly around love and work. Our ideas are divided into six key topics, that together contribute to the calmer, more resilient and self-aware lives we deserve: Self-Knowledge, Relationships, Work, Calm, Sociability, Leisure & Culture
