Lessons From The New Science

Draws on a range of scientific research in such fields as psychology, sociology, and applied economics that reveals how everyday people are no happier than they were fifty years ago in spite of higher wages, in a study that seeks to define happiness while identifying its causes and the means that are available to everyday individuals to pursue and acquire happiness. 40,000 first printing.
