This book provides a comprehensive treatment of how happiness and
wellbeing are measured. It presents an accessible summary of the
philosophy, methodology, and applicability of the various
measurement techniques that have been generated by the leaders of
the happiness movement. It traces the history of development of the
core ideas, and clarifies the unexpectedly wide range of techniques
that are used. The book provides an unbiased assessment of the
strengths and weaknesses of each approach and differentiates the
contributions that have been made by psychologists, economists,
environmentalists, and health scientists. It examines applications
at a personal scale, in the workplace, at a societal scale, and on
the world stage. It does so in an easy-to-read anecdotal writing
style that will appeal to a wide range of academic and lay readers
who enjoy popularized non-fiction that address matters of social
concern.
