Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the nature and value of happiness, this book critically examines various philosophical and psychological theories, highlighting their shortcomings. The author, Fred Feldman, proposes a novel approach known as attitudinal hedonism, where happiness is linked to the pleasure one derives from experiences. He argues that this understanding of happiness can meaningfully influence notions of well-being and has significant implications for moral philosophy and hedonic psychology. Additionally, the book discusses empirical research related to happiness, bridging theory and practice.
