HarperCollins India announces the release of The Happiness Trail  by Ramesh Venkateswaran

An Insightful, philosophical, energetic, easy to read book, supported with back-of-the-book exercises to apply the theories discussed!

The book has a glowing foreword from Nandan Nilekani, non-executive chairman, Infosys.

Author, Ramesh Venkateswaran on publication of his book quoted, “We live in a world that constantly equates with happiness with success. And so, we get on a treadmill to chase success, assuming it will lead to happiness. But we’re running after the wrong thing. The Happiness Trail is a reflection of simple yet important learnings that shows us how to achieve two seemingly complementary goals that we many a time discover to be poles apart.”
