Abstract
A semi-popular book presenting important philosophical issues from the perspective of a motorcyclist: the value of human life and the nature of our interaction with the world; the nature of death; the extent to which the state can legitimately interfere with human freedom and punish wrongdoers; the status of non-human animals; our obligations towards the environment, and the nature of works of art.
