The Epicurean Philosophy of Pleasure
This book deals with the principal doctrines of Epicureanism and the Epicurean pursuit of pleasure.
"The term Epicureanism has two distinct meanings. In its popular sense, the word stands for a refined and calculating selfishness, seeking not power or fame, but the pleasures of sense, particularly of the palate, and those in company rather than solitude. An epicure is one who is extremely choice and delicate in his viands. In the other sense, Epicureanism signifies a philosophical system, which includes a theory of conduct, of nature, and of mind." (Michael J. Ryan)
