The need for happiness is of equal importance to all humans, whether they are male or female, advanced in age or young, big or small, whatever race or ethnicity. The need for happiness cuts across cultures and values, beliefs and traditions, time and space. It is desirable for all peoples and cultures, and needs our serious deliberation. The need for happiness appeals for immediate attention of persons, organizations, and nations that values and stands up for human freedom, justice, equity and equality. Happiness is vitally an inevitable ingredient in the life of persons and societies. It is not a luxury but a necessity. Happiness is not spiritual or material based as many have purported, but it is both. Unfortunately the inalienable importance of happiness in people’s life has not only been abused, it has also been neglected. It has been neglected in our political, economic, social and religious spheres of life, and has been abused because of selfishness, greed, and quest to maximize profit.Have you ever taken time to think about your personal happiness, and that of other people? Have you ever paused to think of communal happiness, and its role toward a better society? Or ask why are so many people living without happiness? What is the reason many people are materially poor, while few are materially very rich? Does it mean that those many poor people do not work hard enough to be materially rich or are they not smart enough? These and myriad of other factors are discussed in the book.The book discusses the key factors that are responsible for the expulsion of human and societal happiness, and shine light on some of the guidelines to enhance happiness. To this end, the means to happiness, what brings happiness, and what hinders it are discussed. In fact the book takes the reader though a step by step insight of the world of happiness and how to sustain it. The summary of the book is the need to restore and sustain personal and communal happiness and how. This book is carefully designed to empower the reader. It explicitly outlines instances, measure, practices and a way of life that fosters and instills happiness in the life of the reader. It as much out lined those factors that have happiness unrealistic. In all, the reader gains new ideas, perspectives, and experiences on how to achieve and enjoy happiness. This book reviews the meaning of happiness, delineates it from the pseudo one, and shows how happiness is a package, rather an isolated item. The book exposes the secrets of happiness by pointing out the major things that make happiness, and by tapping into traditional cultural values and wisdom that challenges the 21st culture, men and women toward a future story of a new culture of happiness.
