- Summary:
- This volume explores the puzzles and the surprising challenges of explaining ill-being in philosophical terms. It includes contributions from many of the main proponents of the various theories of well-being and new voices who explain how particular theories can best account for ill-being and its challenges. The collection spans many of the main approaches to well-being, as well as other undertheorized questions, issues, and insights arising from philosophical reflection on the nature of well-being and ill-being.
