«Plaidoyer pour le bonheur» is the philosophy and spirituality essay by Matthieu Ricard, published by Pocket in paperback (384 pages, in French).
Against the often pessimistic Western view, Matthieu Ricard argues from Buddhism that happiness can be cultivated: it is not a fleeting state but a trainable capacity through meditation. The book examines the emotions that distance us from it and proposes practical ways to transform them and achieve stable inner peace.

For readers of philosophy, psychology, and personal development seeking reflective reading on well-being.
