• Alain's On Happiness (Iwanami Bunko)

This book is not a systematic academic paper or a general-interest book.
It's like a collection of short essays (which I call "proposals" or "philosophical fragments").
Each of the 93 transmitters consists of three to four pages of text.
Each transmitter has a title, and I found one that caught my eye.
You can enjoy it even if you just read it casually.
There are no chapters, not even a table of contents; rather, it's meant to be read freely.
It might be based on that premise.

Alain is an optimist.
Pessimism is something anyone can become, but optimism is something you have to work towards.
It's easy to blame others for your misfortunes and lament, but happiness is something you have to work for.
That is the case.
