摘要：

In the popular imagination the question of the meaning of life must be the most important philosophical question of all. Just consider how many religious and self-help bestsellers have been devoted to the question. For all that, in the professional philosophical literature the question is quite neglected. More - much more - is written on whether tables exist. More - much more - is written on whether triangularity exists. Why do professional philosophers neglect the biggest problem of all? Why do they spend their time instead debating about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin? Are they so uninterested in what interests their fellows? Are they so disinterested in money and fame?
