Description
A profound advocate for willpower and rational deliberation, Arthur Schopenhauer believed that complete happiness and satisfaction are unobtainable. This essay from his final work, Parerga und Paralipomena, examines how to discover the highest possible degree of pleasure and success, and suggests guidelines for experiencing life to its fullest.
Schopenhauer's work offers a powerfully original point of view on a subject of perennial interest, presented in a lucid and compelling style. This edition, part of the Dover Ed series, provides an accessible introduction to his philosophy.
