The Conquest of Happiness is Bertrand Russellâs recipe for good living. First published in 1930, it pre-dates the current obsession with self-help by decades. Leading the reader step by step through the causes of unhappiness and the personal choices, compromises and sacrifices that (may) lead to the final, affirmative conclusion of âThe Happy Manâ, this is popular philosophy, or even self-help, as it should be written.
