Description

Unearth wisdom from our greatest writers and philosophers, wisdom to help change the way you perceive and live your life.

The search for happiness is without a doubt one of our greatest preoccupations. In this fascinating volume of essays and anecdotes, influential writers from classical times to the early twentieth century explore what it means to be happy. Whilst Epicurus sets out his principles for happiness, Ralph Waldo Emerson explains how friendship contributes to a happy state, and Jerome K. Jerome suggests with characteristic wit that we eat, drink and be merry.

These and many more offer an inspiring array of insightful writing which combines self-help, erudition and dazzling wisdom to create a book to treasure and to guide you through life.

Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, cloth-bound, pocket-sized classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
