life and society - the collection

In November 2011, I invited 12 friends to write for my inaugural guest series "life and society". They are from and/or currently live in many different places in the world, but what's the cooler thing is that it's a collection of diverse interests and opinions, all concerned with the deliberately vague topic about our lives and society.

If you missed out, here's a content list of the articles. Alternatively you can also click on the "life and society" tag.
