A short but engaging look at how the key to our own happiness may
lie with other people. Why is Denmark consistently ranked one of
the happiest nations? In Happiness, researcher Christian Bjornskov
explores what we mean when we talk about happiness. Based on new
research findings on how people perceive their own lives, Bjornskov
argues that the basic factors that constitute happiness are mostly
universal across cultures. By evaluating studies and theories on
happiness that test how family, genetics, religion, wealth, work,
and trust factor into our happiness as well as how often we smile
or compare ourselves to others, Bjornskov outlines why our most
important source of happiness may be the people around us.
Reflections In Reflections, a series copublished with Denmark's
Aarhus University Press, scholars deliver 60-page reflections on a
key concept that encapsulates their years of study and research.
These books present unique insights on a wide range of topics and
concepts-everything from love, trust, and play, to corruption,
welfare, and sleep-that entertain and enlighten readers with
exciting discoveries and new perspectives.
