On Being Awesome A Unified Theory of How Not to Suck

In this original, fun, and slyly helpful investigation of a thoroughly modern condition, pro-skater-turned-philosopher Nick Riggle argues that our collective interest in being awesome (and not sucking) marks a new era in American culture, one that is shaped by relatively recent social, cultural and technological shifts. An accessible, philosophical road trip through the ethics of our time, On Being Awesome provides a new and inspiring framework for understanding friendship, success, and happiness in our everyday lives.
