Reflections on Happiness

Emilie du Châtelet

Reflections on Happiness by Gabrielle Émilie Le Tonnelier de Breteuil, Marquise du Châtelet, is a philosophical essay exploring the nature of happiness and its relationship to human life. Written in the 18th century, the work reflects the marquise's deep engagement with the intellectual currents of her time, particularly the Enlightenment. In this piece, she examines the concept of happiness, questioning what it truly means to live a fulfilled and meaningful life. 
Du Châtelet argues that happiness is not simply a passive state of contentment but is closely linked to the pursuit of reason, virtue, and intellectual growth. She critiques the idea that material wealth or external circumstances alone can bring lasting happiness, suggesting instead that a person’s inner life—shaped by rational thought, self-control, and personal development—plays a crucial role in achieving fulfillment. Moreover, she posits that happiness is a complex and individual experience, shaped by both reason and emotions, and that it is more sustainable when it is aligned with one’s own nature and values. 
Throughout the work, du Châtelet blends insights from philosophy, science, and personal reflection, offering a nuanced understanding of happiness as both a goal and a process. The essay reflects her belief in the power of human agency and the importance of intellectual and emotional balance in the pursuit of a meaningful life.

Behavior Therapy - Changing...

Vivian Westlake

Behavior therapy is a transformative approach to addressing some of the most persistent challenges in human behavior. It operates on the principle that our actions, emotions, and thoughts are shaped by experiences and environments. By systematically identifying and modifying these influences, behavior therapy empowers individuals to create meaningful and lasting change in their lives. 
At its core, behavior therapy is rooted in scientific rigor. It draws on established principles of learning theory, particularly those derived from classical and operant conditioning. These foundations provide a clear framework for understanding why people behave as they do and how those behaviors can be reshaped. Unlike approaches that focus solely on introspection or abstract theories, behavior therapy emphasizes practical strategies that deliver measurable outcomes. 
This pragmatic focus has made behavior therapy widely applicable. From treating mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression to addressing behavioral challenges in educational settings, its impact is far-reaching. Behavior therapy has also proven effective in improving health-related behaviors, such as smoking cessation or managing chronic illness, and in organizational contexts, where it enhances productivity and collaboration. Its adaptability to diverse populations and problems is one of its greatest strengths.

Nice is Not Enough - Inequality...

C.J. Pascoe

This provocative story of contemporary high school argues that a shallow culture of kindness can do more lasting harm than good. 
 
 
  
Based on two years of research, Nice Is Not Enough shares striking dispatches from one high school's "regime of kindness" to underline how the culture operates as a Band-Aid on persistent inequalities. Through incisive storytelling and thoughtful engagement with students, this brilliant study by C. J. Pascoe exposes uncomfortable truths about American politics and our reliance on individual solutions instead of profound systemic change. 
 
 
  
Nice Is Not Enough brings listeners into American High, a middle- and working-class high school characterized by acceptance, connection, and kindness—a place where, a prominent sign states, "there is no room for hate." Here, inequality is narrowly understood as a problem of individual merit, meanness, effort, or emotion rather than a structural issue requiring deeper intervention. Surface-level sensitivity allows American High to avoid "political" topics related to social inequality based on race, sex, gender, or class. Being nice to each other, Pascoe reveals, does not serve these students or solve the broader issues we face; however, a true politics of care just might.
