Beschreibung

Well-being is one of the foremost topics in ethics, which extends far beyond philosophy: studies into the science and psychology of well-being and 'wellness' have propelled the topic to centre stage and governments spend millions on promoting it. Guy Fletcher unpacks the topic in this rigorous and comprehensive introduction to the philosophy of well-being.
