Thousands of years ago, Socrates said that an unexamined life is not worth living. The piece of paper we pick up from the ground to read its content is an examination of life. A blood cell, when analysed under a microscope, is an examination of life. Astronauts sent into orbit to explore the universe are also part of this continuing examination of life.\r\nThe columns written by Mohammad Badrul Ahsan belong to this same tradition of inquiry, varied in both style and substance. The author displays a boundless curiosity about life and a passionate desire to understand it, detail by detail, which inspires his wide-ranging choice of topics. He writes about anything that touches his heart, stirs his imagination, and sparks his curiosity.\r\nFor any reader, engaging with this book is like embarking on a kaleidoscopic journey, where patterns and perspectives shift with each turn—from the death of a man to the future of a country to the US invasion of Iraq. Yet, there is a unifying thread running through all the pieces: a deep faith in the inherent goodness of humanity. By the end of each essay, the reader is left reflecting on that goodness, and perhaps longing for it.\r\nUltimately, this compelling collection of essays is likely to leave readers reflecting deeply, and at times questioning fundamental issues they may not have considered before
