I would also recommend the Dalai Lama's The Art of Happiness: A Handbook for Living. Although it is written by a Buddhist leader, it is written to every human being. I have other recommendations as well, but this is a good start at examining happiness from a Buddhist perspective. It is universal, and it doesn't assume it is a religious experience.
