Similarities and Differences
A Comparison of The Conquest of Happiness by Bertrand Russell and
The
Art of Happiness by the Dalai Lama
Notes by Doug Muder (1999)
When Bertrand Russell and the Dalai Lama make a specific recommendation
on a specific issue, they usually make the same recommendation. In that
sense, there are many points of agreement between the two books. However,
there remain profound differences in point of view between the two books,
and consequently they deal with very different sets of issues.
