On Happiness (Gilded Pocket Edition)

On Happiness presents the teachings of the Greek philosopher on life and death, religion and science, friendship, morality, and the pursuit of a fulfilling life. His ideas, advocating scientific observation as the basis for knowledge and the value of a simple, modest existence, influenced later thinkers including Isaac Newton, Thomas Hobbes, and Karl Marx. This elegant pocket-sized gift edition features an insightful introduction by Professor Nicholas Gooding, with an embossed cover, ivory pages, decorative endpapers, and gilded edges, making it a distinguished keepsake and an ideal gift for any admirer of classic literature.
