Happiness is a quest known to human beings from ancient times. Against the backdrop of the recent surge of interest in positive psychology and the emergence of a vast happiness industry, this book attempts to explore the history and meaning behind this phenomena.

Excerpt from the Book:

"There are three proven cornerstones of a happy and contented life- the self, bringing joy into other people's life and the beauty of all that is around us.
