Beschreibung

Happiness is an everyday term in our lives, and most of us strive to be happy. But defining happiness can be difficult. In this <em>Very Short Introduction</em>, Dan Haybron considers the true nature of happiness. By examining what it is, assessing its importance in our lives, and how we can (and should) pursue it, he considers the current thinking on happiness, from psychology to philosophy. Illustrating the diverse routes to happiness, Haybron reflects on contemporary ideas about the pursuit of a good life and considers the influence of social context on our satisfaction and well-being.
