Philosophy of Happiness: Seeking Wisdom and a Life of Human Flourishing presents readers with an exploration into diverse perspectives on the concept of happiness, beginning with historical insights from ancient Greek and Roman philosophers and moving through medieval Christian and Buddhist viewpoints to contemporary philosophical and psychological reflections. The book offers a variety of considerations on how to incorporate happiness into one's life, recognizing that happiness is deeply personal and varies among individuals. The text is organized into six chapters, each addressing a different angle of happiness-from ancient wisdom and pragmatic stoic advice to the impact of religious traditions and modern philosophers on the concept of happiness. It provides a rich palette of thoughts on living a meaningful and purposeful life, inviting readers to consider and practice self-knowledge, reflection, and the alignment of one's actions with personal values. Philosophy of Happiness is ideal for courses in philosophy, ethics, and psychology. It offers foundational knowledge and practical insights suitable for students at various academic levels who wish to learn about the philosophy of happiness and apply principles of happiness to their daily lives.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
