God Explained in a Taxi Ride

by Paul Arden
God Explained in a Taxi Ride
God Explained in a Taxi Ride

Philosophy made digestible during a short journey.

Ever felt like philosophy could use a dose of everyday practicality? "God Explained in a Taxi Ride" does just that. It's perfect for a reader looking for deep thoughts without the heavy textbook vibe. Picking up this book is like catching a cab with a surprisingly wise driver, offering insights during a trip across town.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
