Description
First published in 1930, The Conquest of Happiness is a thought-provoking exploration of the causes of unhappiness in modern life and a proposed path to a happier existence.
Bertrand Russell, a renowned philosopher, argues that a rational approach to living a happy life is essential, and that cultivating interests outside oneself and avoiding passive pleasure are crucial to achieving this goal.
More than 80 years after its initial release, Russell's ideas remain relevant and thought-provoking, offering a fresh perspective on how to live a fulfilling life.
