What is the true nature of happiness? Marsilio Ficino bridges the gap between ancient logic and the human soul to reveal how pleasure evolves from a base physical sensation into a divine state of rest. Discover a Renaissance roadmap that leads from the 'monstrous' urges of the body to the sublime 'acquiescence' of the contemplative mind.
