Introducing Happiness
Posted: Thursday January 5, 2012
My book on happiness has just been published by Icon books.
Welcome to thinkBuddha.org, a small website dedicated to thoughts both on and off the winding paths of the various traditions of Buddhism.
thinkBuddha.org is a website run by me, Will Buckingham. I am a novelist, philosopher and writer (find out more on the about page), and I currently teach at De Montfort University in Leicester in the UK.
Although thinkBuddha started life as a blog, and was nominated as one of the top blogs of 2009 by the Sunday Times, these days the site is now more of a repository for a bunch of short articles that span a number of areas from philosophy to science, and from ethics and literature to Buddhist practice. In short, it is a place where I write and explore those things that interest me.
The archive here on thinkBuddha is continuing to grow. There are currently 303 articles in the database (this is a live counter, so will be updated as I add more). To search the articles database go to the articles page; or go straight to the archive for an exhaustive list of all the articles on the site.
