It is for anyone who wants to be happy and good, for beginners or ""experts,"" religious believers or secular humanists. It is for young adults (the pious and the ""nones"") and adults, for professors, students, campus ministers, dancers, carpenters, lawyers, plumbers, teachers, corporate workers--all who seek to be happy and good.
