Abstract:
As the sunset swings into view, you think, "That's beautiful." You take a bite of cake and you think, "Wow, that's sweet." Maybe too sweet. You hear that new song and it blows you away. You play it for your friends. The novel is wonderful, the movie disappoints, the dress looked better in the store. Three philosophers offer their perspectives on how your aesthetic commitments move you through the world and shape your well-being, your sense of self, and your connections to others.
