Customer Reviews
Happier
Nothing in life brings the contentment of inner happiness, not power, not money, not fame. This book presents a path to finding this special treasure. The author teaches a class at Harvard on the contents of this book. It has the biggest class enrollment on campus. It is a class I also taught for many years. I never had a student that did find the class useful. I was pleased to see our classes were much alike though we had no connection before I read this book.
