About this listen
The Conquest of Happiness (1930) is Bertrand Russell’s short, practical guide to living more happily in the modern world. Russell argues that much unhappiness comes from patterns of thought and social pressures—like envy, fear of opinion, boredom, and the obsessive pursuit of status—and that these can be unlearned. He offers a clear-eyed, non-mystical path toward greater well-being grounded in rational self-understanding, meaningful work, curiosity, affection, and engagement with the world outside the self. The book mixes philosophical insight with down-to-earth advice, aiming to be a “how-to” manual for ordinary people rather than an abstract theory of happiness.
