Every culture hands wisdom down through generations. What doesn't
kill you makes you stronger. What you do not wish for yourself, do
not do to others. Happiness comes from within. Can these 'truths'
hold the key to a happier, more fulfilled life? In The Happiness
Hypothesis, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt examines ten Great
Ideas which have been championed across centuries and civilisations
and asks: how can we apply these ideas to our twenty-first century
lives? By holding ancient wisdom to the test of modern psychology,
Haidt extracts lessons on how we can train our brains to be more
optimistic, build better relationships and achieve a sense of
balance. He also explores how we can overcome the obstacles to
well-being that we place in our own way. In this uplifting and
empowering book, Haidt draws on sources as diverse as Buddha,
Benjamin Franklin and Shakespeare to show how we can find happiness
and meaning in life. 'I don't think I ever read a book that laid
out the contemporary understanding of the human condition with such
simple clarity and sense.' Guardian
