Description
Happiness: A Philosophical and Pedagogical Treasure
Book Summary
A work that intertwines philosophy, understood as the love of wisdom, with pedagogy, the art of transmitting and acquiring knowledge. The author invites the reader on a journey of self-discovery inspired by the Socratic aphorism "Know thyself," using the maieutic method as a tool for inner enrichment. The goal is to face life with happiness and integrity, awakening consciousness as a guide to understanding and acting upon the world.
