'Of Experience,' by Michel de Montaigne 'I study myself more than any other subject,' Montaigne tells us in this essay, without a whiff of apology. Those who follow him as he drifts from one idiosyncratic observation to the next will be rewarded, eventually, with his contemplation of his chronic kidney stones, an excruciating condition in which solid masses form in the kidney and force their way through the urinary system.
