Happiness And The Friendship Of Books

By Newell Dwight Hillis

Book Overview

Happiness And The Friendship Of Books is a book written by Newell Dwight Hillis. It is a philosophical exploration of the role that books can play in our lives and the ways in which they can contribute to our happiness. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the relationship between books and happiness. Hillis argues that books can provide us with a sense of purpose, help us to connect with others, and offer us a sense of transcendence. He also discusses the importance of reading widely and the ways in which books can broaden our perspectives and help us to understand the world around us. Throughout the book, Hillis draws on a wide range of literary examples, from classic works of literature to contemporary bestsellers, to illustrate his points. Ultimately, Happiness And The Friendship Of Books is a celebration of the power of books to enrich our lives and bring us joy.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Quest of Happiness: A Study of Victory Over Life's Troubles, by Newell Dwight Hillis.
