An excerpt:
The School of Life, operating out of a small shop in the arty district of Bloomsbury describes itself as a "chemist for the mind" that plans to dispense "cultural solutions to everyday ailments".
It hopes to inspire those who have got out of the habit of reading decent books, cannot keep conversation flowing at dinner parties, or need to expand their holiday horizons.
Hmm. Not a bad idea. Which basic life skill do you think deserves a spot among academic coursework?Cell phone etiquette? Conversation skills? Kissing?
