Recenzii

A very useful antidote to the pressures of modern living. Very few books change the way you think about yourself, but this is one of them. I would particularly recommend it to young adults with all these life choices ahead of them.
Passionate, provocative. . .a manifesto for a better society
One of the most rigorous articulations of the new mood of acceptance. . . a persuasive demolition of many of our cultural stories about how we ought to live
Paul Dolan knows what makes people happy - and what doesn't.Happy Ever Afterisilluminating, wise, profound. A magnificent achievement
Asmart and irreverentlook at the bad advice, lame instructions, and missing ingredients in society's recipe for a happy life
Asplendiddemonstration of how conventional aspirations can make us miserable
A timely warning that we need to question standard assumptions about what is good for individuals and society. Dolan makes a compelling case for putting people's own perceptions of their wellbeing at the heart of policy making
