The Happiness Index

This is a book with a single purpose; to help people to become happier in their lives. It is not a dry academic look at how to deal with problems nor loaded with terms designed to impress. In plain language, it sets out the way to climb the Happiness Index using tried and tested techniques and it is designed to leave nobody behind. Happiness can be measured and it can be boosted. There are ways to manage real life problems and the stress that comes with them. Prof. Williams does not preach nor blame. He writes from first hand experience of life's most difficult problems and reveals techniques to deal with them. Although well researched and supported, this speaks directly to the reader in a way that is unusual in books of this type. In fact, there are no other books of this type including as it does excerpts from his fictional works that neverthless underline the core messages which are: You don't need to suffer, you can be helped and whatever your circumstances may be, they can be improved in every case.  This is not hyperbole, this is the science of human nature harnessed to best effect. Whatever your current status, you could be significantly happier. One life, one chance. That's all we get.
