How can we make it easier to be happy? Using the latest cutting-edge research, Professor Paul Dolan reveals that wellbeing isn't about how we think - it's about what we do. By making deliberate choices that bring us both pleasure and meaning, we can redesign our lives for maximum happiness - without thinking too hard about it.

'Bold and original ... what I wish for my grandchildren: a life that is rich in activities both pleasurable and meaningful' Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast and Slow

Didn’t want to finish
Book was so nice and pleasant to read that I didn’t want it to end :) As a ux designer it was really interesting for me how such abstract thing as happiness could be designed. And seems like it really could!
