Profit from Happiness


Book Description

Jake Ducey shows readers that the secret to prosperity and fulfillment at work and at home is to connect more deeply with those around you. Imagine doubling your income, without doubling your work hours. Imagine a world where everyone woke up happy, excited for work, and went home fulfilled. Imagine you could not stop smiling because you constantly felt so good about your professional and personal life. Most people believe that the best way to make more money is to work harder than ever and, as a result, they compromise their relationships, happiness, and energy.

In this enlightening, simple, heart-opening book, he asserts that the secret to high achievement and happiness at work, at school, in your heart, and at home is the deeply human need to wholeheartedly connect with and become more valuable to those around you. Ducey gives you mind-expanding and practical new ways to create more success, money, and happiness. The result is an enlightening and fulfilling read that will strengthen your relationship with money, bring you closer to those around you, and transform what you do at work, at school, and at home.

The Philosophy of Happiness


Book Description

Emerging research on the subject of happiness—in psychology, economics, and public policy—reawakens and breathes new life into long-standing philosophical questions about happiness (e.g., What is it? Can it really be measured or pursued? What is its relationship to morality?). By analyzing this research from a philosophical perspective, Lorraine L. Besser is able to weave together the contributions of other disciplines, and the result is a robust, deeply contoured understanding of happiness made accessible for nonspecialists. This book is the first to thoroughly investigate the fundamental theoretical issues at play in all the major contemporary debates about happiness, and it stands out especially in its critical analysis of empirical research. The book’s coverage of the material is comprehensive without being overwhelming. Its structure and pedagogical features will benefit students or anyone studying happiness for the first time: Each chapter opens with an initial overview and ends with a summary and list of suggested readings.
