Will this ever be useful? I highly recommend this book; it is a great over-haul for both men and women.

May 20, Michael P. Russell was very right to title this quintessential self-help book with the word "conquest", since happiness is hardly a thing that emanates from the heavens down to your precious soul - unfortunately, the opposite view has held sway for a couple thousand years. Modulo the elements that haven't dated well however, there was sufficient that has resonance for our times.

The Conquest of Happiness

His insight fericifii the human psyche is remarkable. Below is what I quote from the book: Bergrand read it in parts to be able to absorb the information inside which is a lot.

Bertrand Russel, cheery scientist and one of the greatest minds and personalities of the era, explains his take on human happiness and what keeps most of us from it most of the time.

Go out into the world; become a pirate, a king in Borneo, a laborer in Soviet Russia.

Leading the reader step by step through the causes of unhappiness and the personal choices, compromises and sacrifices that may lead to the final, affirmative conclusion of 'The Happy Man', this is popular philosophy, or even self-help, as it should be written.

And it isn't worth the effort. Quotes from The Conquest of H A genuine book, calling it a self-help book wouldn't do it justice. The book is divided into two parts, Causes of Unhappiness and Causes of HappinessI loved both rissell their own ways but the first part more.
