Desmond Morris – The Nature of HappinessRenowned anthropologist and behaviorist Desmond Morris (The Naked Ape) looks at the nature of human happiness—and how understanding it may help you live a happier life.What is happiness? Here, one of the world’s foremost behavioral scientists tackles this age-old question. He shows that there are many ways of achieving happiness; for example, there is the inherent happiness that comes with the love of a child; the competitive happiness of triumphing over your opponents; the sensual happiness of the hedonist. Rather than preaching a particular behavior or way of life, Morris pres knowledge that we can use, if we wish, to make ourselves happier. But only when we consider the entire range of possibilities can we hope to understand the true nature of happiness. Widely respected for his writing on animal and human behavior, Desmond Morris’ many best-sellers include The Human Animal.
