«Philosophie des Glücks» is the philosophical essay by Ludwig Marcuse, published by Diogenes Verlag in paperback (325 pages, in German).
Essay that surveys different conceptions of happiness in the history of thought, from Job to Freud, with stops at Seneca, Tolstoy, Heine, Büchner and Nietzsche.

For readers interested in philosophy, cultural history and the evolution of the concept of happiness.
