Description
The proposed religion is based on the belief that the legitimate purpose of life is happiness and the best foundation for happiness is self-importance.
The happiness purpose is to be achieved through the use of thinking and humour and dignity. The ideal of love is to be replaced by the more reliable practice of respect.
The new religion may be used as a framework or as a philosophy. It may be used as a way of living or a way of looking at things. The new religion may be used on its own or in conjunction with any other religion.
Lucid, entertaining and provocative as always, Edward de Bono presents his blueprint for the disciplined pursuit of happiness which, in his opinion, is the legitimate purpose of life.
Self-respect, dignity, self-importance and humour occupy an important place in his scheme, and in this practical manual the famous exponent of 'lateral thinking' shows you how to utilize these assets as tools for mental and spiritual betterment.
