Passing of Temporal Well-Being

<p>It is now standard in philosophy to distinguish between <i>lifetime</i> well-being how good a person's life was for him or her considered as a whole and <i>temporal</i> well-being how well off a person was or how they fared at a particular moment in time or over some period of time longer than a moment but shorter than a whole life say a day month year or chapter of a life. A major topic is how these two kinds of well-being relate to each other and this book dares to argue that there is no such thing as temporal well-being.</p>
