The Conquest of Happiness

The Conquest of Happiness (1930) explores the pursuit of human happiness. It dissects common obstacles to happiness, such as competition and fatigue, as well as the various factors that contribute to it. Equal parts philosophical and practical, you’ll come away with a deepened understanding of, and preparedness for, a fulfilling life. 

• Anyone wanting to increase their sense of fulfillment
• Individuals interested in the development of the personal happiness movement
• Philosophy enthusiasts seeking an understanding of Russell’s perspective

Bertrand Russell was a pioneering twentieth-century British philosopher and logician. Winner of the 1950 Nobel Prize for Literature, Russell published over 2,000 articles and 70 books – including Principia Mathematica, The Problems of Philosophy, and A History of Western Philosophy – during his life.
