520 _a"After taking an introductory look at ancient Greek philosophy, Charry surveys the treatment of God and happiness throughout the history of Christian thought, from Saint Augustine through the 18th century. She then explores the biblical vision of happiness in the Pentateuch, Psalms, Proverbs and the Gospel of John, clearly showing how the Bible encourages the happiness and flourishing that accompany obedience to the Creator."
