Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
Happiness
Daniel M. Haybron · 2013
80/100
👍 Worth It
A tight, thoughtful little book that treats happiness as the real philosophical puzzle it is, with a clear attunement/engagement/endorsement framework you can actually think with. It leans more academic than most happiness books, so it rewards someone looking for depth over a quick pep talk. Rigorous and worth the short time it takes.
