Description

A sweeping intellectual history charts the concept of happiness in human life and explains how this modern belief is the result of a revolution in human expectations since the eighteenth century, when the Enlightenment's recognition of happiness as a motivating ideal led to its official consecration in the Declaration of Independence and France's Declaration of the Rights of Man. 25,000 first printing.
