What you do not wish for yourself, do not do to others. Happiness comes from within. But, do these 'truths' actually hold the key to a happier, more fulfilled life? And if so, can we apply these ideas to our twenty-first century lives?In The Happiness Hypothesis, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt examines ten Great Ideas which have been championed across civilisations. 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. 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.____Riveting...
