Loss is a permanent presence in all our lives. But is there too much suffering in the world - or just the right amount?Adam Phillips has been called the 'psychotherapist of the floating world' and 'the closest thing we have to a philosopher of happiness'. In his extraordinary new book he takes a look, via Freud and Darwin, at endings - at mortality, extinction and death.
