This small masterpiece by the late Fr. Herbert McCabe of the Dominican order steers a steady course between the idea of happiness as a simple emotion and the view that only religious experience can bring true happiness. We feel instinctively that human beings are designed to be happy and yet we are told that suffering is good for the soul. In the Catholic tradition the true object of human existence is the vision of God and nothing less than this will ever make us truly happy. Fr. McCabe explores the deepest issues in this entirely original book that will further enhance McCabe's posthumous reputation.
