This book by Jostein Gaarder came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Tim Ferriss. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“If you're a complete newbie to philosophy and want to get a basic understanding of the Western canon I recommend a book called Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder”— Tim Ferriss
The guest here is Mark Manson: Three-time #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck (~20 million copies sold), longtime personal-development blogger at MarkManson.net, and co-author of Will Smith's memoir 'Will'. Mark Manson tells Tim Ferriss the unglamorous truth behind his mega-bestseller, his decade of quiet iteration, and his pivot back to online video.
