Review of Epicurus and the Pleasant Life by Haris Dimitridis
Epicurus and the pleasant life: Living by the philosophy of nature by Haris Dimitriadis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Brilliant Fusion of Ancient and Modern Understandings of Happiness! Epicurus is a widely misunderstood philosopher often associated with hedonistic pursuits. Nothing could be further from the truth. 2300 years ago he laid out a plan for personal happiness through seeking natural, wholesome pleasures at every opportunity.
Dimitriadis thoroughly examines Epicurus and many other ancient philosophers through the lens of modern psychology, neurology and biochemistry.
I highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in the human mind, and above all, a simple guide to happiness.
