The Happiness Paradox by Ziyad Marar

The dream of a happy life has preoccupied thinkers since Plato, and in modern times it has become one of the signature tunes of our age - the rise of therapists, gurus, and the use of Prozac are familiar indicators of how ubiquitous the pursuit of happiness has become in Western culture. This book examines how this modern obsession has evolved.
'Thoughtful, and at times unsettling, observations on love and work.. Ziyad Marar's book contains a great deal to enlighten and engage anyone interest in happiness, and that probably includes most of us.' - Times Literary Supplement
Ziyad Marar is Editorial Director at Sage Publications, London.
