Reading A Philosophy of Walking | Alexandria
Read A Philosophy of Walking by Frederic Gros. Exploring how the world's greatest thinkers found genius through walking reveals striking truths - Nietzsche walked 8 hours daily to unlock creativity, Kant's neighbors set clocks by his walks, Thoreau discovered sacred rhythms in footsteps. Gros shows walking isn't just movement, but meditation that rewires our brains for insight. Most surprisingly? The faster our world moves, the more walking becomes radical resistance.
