Book excerpt: How should we evaluate the success of each person's life? Steven M. Cahn and Christine Vitrano maintain that our well-being is dependent not on particular activities, accomplishments, or awards but on finding personal satisfaction while treating others with due concern. Cahn and Vitrano link their position to elements within both the Hellenistic and Hebraic traditions, particularly the views of Epicurus and lessons from the Book of Ecclesiastes.
